'goed ontworpen tuinen zien eruit alsof ze altijd al zo zijn geweest, bijna alsof ze zichzelf hebben ontworpen en roepen het imago op van een exclusive en geheime plek'
leuk boekje en goede snoeitips 👍🏻

Well organised for the keen new gardener

Lots of details and advice for planting and encouraging growth in the garden. I would prefer to see more photos but this is a clear book.
