van LANGENBERG, ARTHUR

Arthur van Langenberg was born and brought up in a Hong Kong that was still very green and agriculture was flourishing. His love of nature, fueled by reading widely, led to humble efforts at growing plants with a few pots and wooden packing crates on a verandah. Now, he spends most of his spare time tending his precious plants in a small plot and coaxing life out of any crack in the wall capable of supporting a handful of soil. Kitchen gardening is his special interest. This book is a distillation of his 40 years’ experience of growing food plants in a typical urban setting.
