He works his way from simple and natural methods to more complicated and more artificial ones, and in this way he addresses the individual level of knowledge of every interested person: beginners will find what they are looking for here as well as experienced gardeners, who may be able to pick up a tip or two. Carefully edited reprint of the original edition from 1877.
