It is sometimes difficult, even for the most experienced gardeners, to recognise seedlings that have just emerged from the ground. The questions then arise: what to do with these spontaneous seedlings? to keep them or to pull them up? Thanks to this little booklet presenting 50 of the most common plants in the vegetable garden (vegetables, herbs, spontaneous herbs, flowers), the answer will be easier to find, particularly thanks to the photos showing the shoots at this early stage of their development. Practical to have in your pocket or in your garden shed, within reach of your hoe, this cheat sheet is a very precious tool.
