Gardening deals with growing and cultivation of plants for their flowers, foliages or overall appearance, for consumption and for use as dyes or for medicinal or cosmetic use. Home gardening is found to be an effective approach to improve household food security by supplying families with most of the non-staple foods year round. Community and family vegetable garden and fruit gardens play a significant role in increasing small scale production of micronutrient rich foods. The present publication on “Handbook of Gardening” is planned in 20 interesting chapters vividly highlighting principles, types and practices of gardening covering wide range of aspects include principles gardening, preliminary garden activities, basics of gardening, flower gardening, speciality flower garden, indoor gardening, landscape gardening, lawn gardening, water gardening, vegetable gardening, herb gardening, container gardening, hydroponic gardening, shade gardening, perennial gardening, organic gardening, rooftop gardening, fruit gardening, edible forest gardening and care and maintenance of garden.
It may be humbly claimed that this is the most comprehensive book on gardening. I sincerely hope that this book on ‘Handbook of Gardening’ will be useful to teachers, students, scientists, plant biotechnologists, nutritionists, horticulturists, planners, amateurs and professional gardeners.
