Stocking the Garden Pool - A Guide to the Selection and Establishment of Plants and Fish for the Garden Pool Synopsis

This is the fourth instalment of the "e;Ditchfield's Little Wonder Book"e; series, "e;Stocking the Garden Pond"e;. It deals chiefly with adding, fostering, and maintaining aquatic life in a garden pond, with helpful advice and diagrams throughout. This handy volume will be of utility to existing and prospective pond owners alike, and it would make for a great addition to collections of gardening literature. Contents include: "e;Introduction"e;, "e;Plant Pockets"e;, "e;Preparing the Compost"e;, "e;True Aquatic Plants"e;, "e;Surfacing Plants"e;, "e;Marginal Bog Plants"e;, "e;Floating Plants"e;, "e;Indigenous Fish"e;, "e;Cultivated Varieties"e;, "e;Feeding Pond Fish"e;, "e;Breeding Gold Fish"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
