A start-to-finish how-to book for urbanites who want to create a garden oasis in the middle of the city. Begins with a look at what makes urban roofs and balconies special, but also challenging. Surveys the vast expanse of garden types, and the themes that can individualize them. Provides suggestions on how to get all that heavy stuff up all those flights, how to arrange items to keep weight to a minimum, how to be sure the space is safe, how to keep expenses down, how to choose plantings, planters, and furnishings that make the gardener's dreams come true, how to invite wildlife (YES, wildlife!) into urban spaces, and how to discourage the kind of wildlife no one really wants to host. Finishes up with a few suggestions for enjoyment of the fruits of the gardener's labors: sumptuous recipes with edible flowers from the roof. A seasonal timetable will help keep gardeners on schedule without overburdening them with tasks... after all, this is supposed to be easy and fun! Chapters on gardening 101 insure that even novices have the knowledge to proceed with confidence.
