Chemical weedkillers can be incredibly harmful to the wildlife in your garden, not to mention any fruit and vegetables you might have growing. With over 30 years of experience in organic gardening, Bob Flowerdew has tackled every kind of weed in a variety of ways to devise the best ways to remove them without using dangerous chemicals and maintain a weed-free garden. He discusses each group of weeds individually, as they all need a different approach. Even seemingly ineradicable weeds, such as ground elder, convolvulus and fat hen can be successfully dealt with. One in an indispensable series of books, Weeding Without Chemicals will answer all your queries in a clear, straightforward manner, leaving you to enjoy your garden weed-free.
