Teaming with Fungi is an important guide to mycorrhizae and the role they play in agriculture, horticulture, and hydroponics. Almost every plant in a garden forms a relationship with fungi, and many plants would not exist without their fungal partners. By better understanding this relationship, home gardeners can take advantage of the benefits of fungi, which include an increased uptake in nutrients, resistance to drought, earlier fruiting, and more. This must-have guide will teach you how fungi interact with plants and how to best employ them in your home garden.

When we use chemical fertilizers, we injure the microbial life that sustains plants, and then become increasingly dependent on an arsenal of toxic substances. Teaming with Microbes offers an alternative to this vicious circle, and details how to garden in a way that strengthens, rather than destroys, the soil food web. You’ll discover that healthy soil is teeming with life — not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. This must-have guide is for everyone, from those devoted to organic gardening techniques to weekend gardeners who simply want to grow healthy plants without resorting to chemicals.

Wayne Lewis is a lifelong Alaskan gardener. He has worked with Jeff Lowenfels on many projects over the past 25 years, including the now national Plant a Row for the Hungry program, which encourages gardeners to donate a portion of their harvest to charitable organizations in their community.

Most gardeners realize that plants need to be fed, but many of us know little about the nature of the science involved. In Teaming with Nutrients, Jeff Lowenfels explains the basics of plant nutrition from an organic gardener’s perspective. In his trademark down-to-earth, style, Lowenfels explains the role of both macronutrients and micronutrients and shows gardeners how to provide these essentials through organic, easy-to-follow techniques. Along the way, Lowenfels provides easy-to-grasp lessons in the biology, chemistry, and botany needed to understand how nutrients get into the plant and what they do once they’re inside.

Для всіх, хто хоче добре жити у своєму саду, ось посібник зі створення стильних і зручних для життя просторів на відкритому повітрі – для розваг, ігор і відпочинку.

Окремі басейни завдяки пишним насадженням, спальні, що виходять на задній двір, бар біля печі на відкритому повітрі. Уродженець Каліфорнії та архітектор екстер’єру Скотт Шрейдер відомий тим, що створював привабливі кімнати просто неба для таких клієнтів, як Еллен ДеДженерес і Патрік Демпсі. У своїй першій книзі він розповідає про дванадцять прекрасних будинків, які створені для проживання та насолоди як продовження будинків, які вони оточують, багатих на комфорт істот. Шрейдер показує нам, як поєднати зовнішній ландшафт із внутрішнім декором; в результаті чого зовнішнє середовище природно, стильно та спокійно витікає з цього ядра. Він також надихає нас подумати про те, як ці відкриті простори будуть використовуватися, і заздалегідь спланувати способи, як нагодувати, зігріти та розважити нашу родину та гостей у них.

Між представленими садами, стилі яких коливаються від голлівудського регентства до сучасного марокканського, розміщені медитативні есе на такі теми, як сталий розвиток, спосіб життя та шляхи, де Шрейдер розмірковує про те, як сади постійно змінюються невеликими способами, змінюючи настрій зі світлом і погодою, різко змінюючи цикл пір року та плином років. Це сучасні шикарні сади та розважальні майданчики на відкритому повітрі, спеціально розроблені для приготування їжі, розваг, ігор і відпочинку.

Про авторів:

Ландшафтний дизайн Скотта Шредера заснований на інтуїтивній здатності підключатися до внутрішнього «серця» будинку; в результаті чого зовнішнє середовище природно, стильно та спокійно витікає з цього ядра. Ретельно враховуючи бажання своїх клієнтів, Скотт створює сади, розважальні зони на відкритому повітрі та розслаблюючу атмосферу, спеціально розроблену для тих, хто їх використовує.
Його широкі знання про дизайн і концепцію походять як від ступеня магістра ландшафтної архітектури, так і від бакалавра в галузі міського планування. Його проекти включають будинки, ранчо, маєтки та оздоровчі заклади в Лос-Анджелесі, Малібу, Монтесіто, Вайомінгу, на Гаваях і в Хорватії.
