Urban Gardening on Balconies and Terraces

• Growing vegetables on balconies and rooftops
• Practical information for all balcony gardeners • More green, less grey!

A new generation of open-minded, laid-back urban gardeners is planting on rooftop terraces, balconies, and verandas, or even in parking spaces just outside the house. The spectrum ranges from selections of herbs on the window sill to spacious roof farms with fruit trees and berry cultures, from improvised wine crates and stacked plant pots to sophisticated watering systems or home-grown worm farms.

15 passionate balcony gardeners share their knowledge and their experience. Featuring fascinating photos of the green urban refuges by Sebastian Magnani and lots of practical know- how from gardening expert Sabine Reber.
