The Herb Garden
Sarah Garland
A Complete Guide to growing scented, culinary and medicinal herbs. My own journey
to establish WonderWorks was inspired by my faith in and love of the plant world,
and this book has been a favourite resource for many years. Thanks be to the goddess
Artemesia that Penguin books is still publishing it. While no one book ever has everything,
this book contains history, inspiring pictures, chapters on different kinds of herb
gardens (scented, medicinal and culinary). It has some very useful charts listing
tall herbs, short herbs, sun herbs, shade herbs, herbs for colour, methods of cultivation
and drying, and even a bit about the known medicinal uses. Don't feel discouraged
if you have the urge tohave these herbal allies around you, but live in an apartment
-- there is a good chapter on container gardening.
Herbal Rituals
Judith Berger
A juicy little hardcover book. A year-long journey of magic, medicine and earthy
wisdom -- alive in the concrete jungle. $31.99.
The Complete Medicinal Herbal
P. Ody
Excellent for the beginner, good colour pics for identifying plants.
