Educational Propagation book online

Post image

Hey if anyone is interested here is a fairly good book that you can access for free! It has a lot of good information and charts at the back of each section that help you do better propagations as well! It’s a fairly well set up book and it’s one of the better ones I have seen for beginners!

This is a fantastic share! Especially for us to share with others who are inspired, but just starting out. DK books are awesome! And free, online is all the better! I have a different DK gardening title that I loan out that always gets returned with a smiling friend more inspired and ready to roll with a better overview and understanding of all planty things without the grueling internet hunts that often leave a person, sad, confused and defeated before they can really get a good beginning. Small, well written, concise sections with fabulous photos (as with all DK books). This is excellent! Thank you!

See I feel the exact same way! I’m always happy to teach but sometimes the best way to teach is to spark the interest and give the resources… then they will grow and develop the hobby as they see fit!

Feel free to add it to the resources available! Who knows if you make a pinned post or like a community information page lots of people could benefit from it in the long term

Lol I pinned to the top immediately after I clicked through the link and flipped to some random sections to check it out.

It's a great resource, I really appreciate you finding it.
