Book Overview

Planting small gardens in containers is fun and easy for children of all ages. This book contains 25 projects using things around the house, such as: turning old shoes into pretty plant holders; creating a sun-dial in an old tyre; growing a herb pillow; a plastic bottle making a petunia pig; personality plant pots; and an outdoor Christmas tree, decorated with popcorn and berries for the birds to eat. It teaches horticulture basics, such as propagation, rooting, taking cuttings, composts, and the names of plants and materials.
