ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Award: Home & Garden
American Horticultural Society Book Award
This illustrated gardening handbook offers sound vegetable gardening advice for growing over 100 low maintenance species throughout the season and delicious recipes to cook with your harvest.
Imagine growing vegetables that require just about the same amount of care as the flowers in your perennial beds and borders—no annual tilling and potting and planting. They thrive and produce abundant and nutritious crops throughout the season. It sounds too good to be true, but in this expert vegetable gardening book, author and plant specialist Eric Toensmeier (Edible Forest Gardens) introduces gardeners to a world of little-known and wholly underappreciated plants.
This groundbreaking gardening guide includes advice on:
• The Usual Suspects: Tips for common vegetables like asparagus, rhubarb, and artichoke
• “Minor” Crops: Resources for growing less common edibles like ground cherry and ramps
• Antioxidant Rich Berries: Advice for cultivating much sought after superfoods like the wolfberry, or goji berry
• Full Season Support: How to raise, tend, harvest, and cook with plants that yield great crops in each climate type
Profiling more than 100 species, illustrated with dozens of color photographs and illustrations, and filled with valuable growing tips, recipes, and resources, Perennial Vegetables is a groundbreaking and ground-healing book that will open the eyes of gardeners everywhere to the exciting world of edible perennials.
