Advances in Insect Control
I really enjoyed this. Despite claiming to be a gardener, I am not familiar with many of the plants or plant varieties referred to in the book but I felt I learnt a great deal about the personalities of the two eminent gardeners involved. Both had full, energetic and exciting lives and so much to say about all aspects of life. I was particularly impressed with their interaction with other gardeners; the young were offered opportunities to work alongside Beth and Christo; there were very few 'unkind' comments about the well known gardeners they came across and they were both keen to continue learning and remain 'open' to new ideas. There were some differences of opinion between the two of them but they accepted this with equanimity.
I will be looking at my own planting this year with fresh eyes.
