Book Description
Excerpt from The Gardener's Kalendar, or Monthly Directory of Operations in Every Branch of Horticulture The Culinary Garden, as being the most important branch, takes preference of the others. The Kalendar, in this division, is preceded by a dissertation on Situations for Kitchen Gardens; on Soils, and the various methods of improving them; on Manures, and their application; and on the Rotation of Crops. These important matters I endeavour to discuss in a short and perspicuous manner; and in the Kalendar, to exhibit the newest and most approved methods of cultivating and bringing to early perfection, all kinds of Culinary Vegetables, Sallads, and Herbs; and of storing and preserving them for winter use.

Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 1113
Book Description
The definitive guide to botanical Latin Unlock the secrets of botanical Latin with this beautifully illustrated encyclopedia. The Gardener's Botanical contains definitions of more than 5,000 plant names—from abbreviatus ("shortened") to zonatus ("with bands")—along with more than 350 color illustrations. Scientific plant names are an invaluable tool for those who understand them. Formed from Greek and, more commonly, from Latin root words, not only do they make it possible for gardeners and botanists to communicate, they also contain a wealth of hidden information. The Gardener's Botanical is the key to unlocking these secrets. This guide contains a breathtaking array of botanical names in alphabetical order. Each word is listed with a pronunciation guide, definition, example plant, and, where appropriate, etymology. Also included in this illuminating guide are special features on important plant genera, fact boxes, essays focusing on the history and importance of Latin names and botanical illustrations, and an index of common names with more than 2,000 popular plants, cross-referenced with their binomial name in Latin.

Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
The churches and manuscripts of medieval Europe incessantly juxtapose imagery depicting sacred themes with likenesses of the crudest and basest nature.
