The Times gardening columnist Stephen Anderton provides a compendium of answers to those perennial niggling questions and queries about gardening: everything from when to cut back old hedges to persuading reluctant wistarias to flower, and from choosing climbers for north walls to eliminating bindweed. Appealing to all gardeners - novice and experienced - it is ideal for anyone who has thought 'If only there was an answer to this one in the gardening books!' Here they can find a solution to set their minds at rest. As Stephen says, "Gardening should be fun, but sometimes you run into a problem that spoils it all. The sooner a practical problem is solved, the sooner you can get back to the exciting imaginative part."
