註釋Enjoy tasty strawberries in June, grapes, raspberries, and tomatoes in October, and fresh lettuce and carrots in January. For every month of the year, you'll see how to keep your kitchen garden stocked full of vegetables, fruits, salad crops, herbs, and flowers. "Plants of the Month" sections feature foods that will be ripe for harvesting, and "Practical Projects" provide ways to improve produce or increase yield. For each vegetable or fruit mentioned, you'll find a selection of recommended varieties and their qualities, such as storage life, flavor, and resistance to pests and diseases. Weigh the benefits and costs of various equipment, from the basic cloche and cold frame to the more expensive greenhouse and fruit tunnel, to create the setup right for you. Clearly illustrated with full-color photographs and beautiful sketches, this easy-to-use reference is invaluable for everyone who dreams of enjoying the delicious taste of home-grown, freshly harvested produce year-round.
