100 Herbs to Grow: A Comprehensive Guide To The Best Culinary And Medicinal Herbs

100 Herbs to Grow contains the most productive herbs--ones that are easy to grow, taste delicious, and have medicinal properties.

This is a comprehensive gardening guide, so Jekka details how to grow in the garden, in containers and from seed as well as guiding you through propagation, division, cuttings, harvesting and yearly maintenance. And because she grows over 500 different herbs, she knows which species and varieties are the best of each herb (including ones that she has personally cultivared and bear her name!). In the thirty years she has been growing, she has witnessed the change of climate and pests and diseases that effect herbs so she has created an up-to-date and authoritaive herb handbook. Jekka also offers historical knowledge and anecdotes as well as culinary and medicinal uses so you can benefit from your herbs when you've successfully grown them.
