Stop weeding

First published in 1985, a new paperback edition of Chris Baines’s How to
Make a Wildlife Garden has just come out. It tells you how to do your bit to
safeguard important natural habitats. Flood/tornado/hurricane-stressed British
gardeners can peruse lists of native trees, peacefully contemplate a rotting
log—home to myriads of interesting beasties as well as aesthetically
satisfying—and plan beds of water crowfoot for the next rainy summer and
torrential autumn. Published by Frances Lincoln, £14.99, ISBN
