Gardening with Moss

By Frederick Frye Rockwell

"Gardening with Peat Moss" is a classic guide to gardening, looking at various simple methods of growing beautiful shrubs, flowers and trees in private gardens and allotments. Concentrating on using peat moss to get the best results from your garden, this is a guide that will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in this method of cultivation. Recommended for gardening enthusiasts and collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: "What Peat Moss Is, and What It Brings To the Garden", "How Plants Grow: The All-Important Function of Moisture", "Plants from Seeds and Cuttings", "Planting and Transplanting", "Lawns--Their Making, Re-making, and Keeping", "Success With Roses", "Evergreens and Evergreen Shrubs", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
