It's now possible in any climate, thanks to Growing Tasty Tropical Plants in Any Home, Anywhere, the breakthrough book by Laurelynn Martin and Byron Martin.
|
In this practical guide
the owners of the acclaimed Logee's Tropical Plants draw on a century's
worth of family secrets for lush, exotic edibles, all grown in
containers indoors. |
The book covers 47
varieties of fruiting plants - from chocolate to cherries, from papaya
to passion fruit, from grapefruit to guava. For each plant the Martins
provide everything an enthusiast needs to know, including information
on plant selection, planting, pruning, maintenance, and harvesting.
They
also provide guidelines for caring for container-grown fruit trees -
watering, pest control, pruning, fertilizers, and troubleshooting. The
book will have instant appeal to the ever-growing number of consumers
interested in growing their own food, as well as house plant
enthusiasts looking for new and unusual (an productive!) plants.
