Very detailed information
I really learnt a lot from this book! I am totally new to gardening so I really appreciated how detailed and informative it is. It teaches you how to plant and maintain a variety of shrubs and how to make them thrive.
I really enjoyed the section about therapeutic gardens and planting shrubs with soothing properties as I really want to create a relaxing space. This book opened my eyes to a whole new world of possibilities and creative ideas to maximise my garden space. I'm very excited to get started!

Perennial gardening - stunning garden for ever!
‘Perennial Gardening’ by Susan Hollister is a worth to read guide about many different kind of bulbs, flowers, herbs and vegetables. They are very valuable plants but also need to be properly maintained. Susan shows how to looking after your plants to have wonderful garden year by year.
I especially love hostas with beautiful, rich leaves but I just hate when slugs eaten them. I don’t try to spread sand around it, but it looks simple and more natural than blue pellets that I really afraid because kids and animals can accidentally taste.
Also I never know that I shouldn’t cut dried steams of tulips as they may never grow again.So I won’t do it anymore.
Susan gives very practical advices also what to do with perennial herbs, how to cut them and what are they favourite position. I love natural medicine so always have herbs in my garden but sometimes they just too poor and have insects on them. I am looking for more audiobooks by Susan Hollister about gardening and how to naturally prevent plants from aphides, slugs and others insects.
I just can’t wait for spring time to prepare my garden that will be even more excited with Susan’s audio book that are well-narrated.

Excellent guide for perennial gardening
Any additional comments?
This book is a great guide to help you improve your perennial gardening skills. It is crammed full of useful tips on gardening, so make sure you write your notes. I adore lilies and enjoyed listening all about how to plant them, and I also discovered some great tips to harvest blueberries. If you are thinking of growing vegetables or plants this book will be a great help as it will tell you before you start what you need to know. You will learn about many varieties of plants, vegetables, and flowers such as Egyptian onions, mint, Lilly of the Valley – plenty to choose from! Finally, you will find useful tips on perennial care and choosing the right gardening tools.
