I am interested in getting hold of a book about "fruit and nut growing" to help with selection, aspect and growing. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Found this one, looks pretty comprehensive with nearly 500 pages of information.

I'll keep my eye out for the RD Complete book of herbs Duff. I guess it would stretch to bananas as they are a herb, not just the short, leafy style of herb that we are used to :bash:

And this one is like plant porn. Flick through it and you'll be wanting to go throw some seed around. :hello:

'What Garden Pest or Disease is that' is excellent and gives an organic solution as well as chemical.
