Synopsis

Structured as an almanac, this guide takes a month-by-month approach to helping gardeners support native flora and fauna, whatever the size of their outdoor space. Each chapter introduces the wild plants and creatures you might expect to see at that time of year, then sets out seasonal tasks with clear instructions, alongside profiles of plants in bloom.

Practical projects are included to help create more wildlife-friendly habitats, from making a wildlife pond and building a nest box to planning a herb bed and planting a wildflower meadow. Appendices also cover wildlife gardening in containers and suggested garden layouts, making it easy to locate timely advice as the seasons change.
