In a world of climate change and stretched purse strings, every gardener is having to re-assess not only how they garden but how they spend their money. Even the most experienced gardeners crave a thriftier way to garden - one that is less wasteful and more productive.

In this comprehensive guide, TV presenter and garden designer Mark Lane shows you how to save waste and money in all aspects of your garden.

Understand your garden and it's four key characteristics - temperature, soil type, wind, and sun - to make informed decisions.

Plan and design your garden with cheaper and more sustainable materials and learn how to budget effectively for larger projects. Take stock of what you already have, set a budget before you start, and know when to call in the professionals.

Choose plants that will thrive in your soil, are easy to propagate and give maximum reward. By choosing the right plants for the right place, your garden will flourish.

Care for your garden year-round with effective seasonal tasks. Discover how to grow new plants for free with Mark's step-by-step guides to techniques such as seed collecting, layering, and stem, leaf, and root cuttings.

Full of clever tips, low-budget ideas, expert advice, and tried-and-tested plant suggestions, this book is as much about attitude as it is a gardening guide.

Whether you're starting your first garden on a tight budget or looking for new ideas to save money and reduce waste, this is the must-have and fuss-free guide to better gardening.
