Alex Mitchell Knihy

Jak vypěstovat čerstvé ovoce a zeleninu v srdci města… Zapomeňte na zahrady, trávníky, záhony – nic z toho nebudete potřebovat. K tomu, abyste si vytvořili svůj miniaturní ráj k nakousnutí, vám stačí pouhý balkon nebo jen truhlík za oknem. Alex Mitchellová, městská zahradnice s velkými zkušenostmi, už měla po krk knížek, které pokaždé předpokládají, že máte k dispozici obrovské lány, a tak napsala svou vlastní. Z ní se dozvíte, jak si pořídit „jedlý“ balkon už během jediného víkendu, a ještě přitom zužitkovat různé vysloužilé věci. Vaše městská minizahrádka vás pak bude zásobovat nejrůznějšími zdravými pochoutkami – bylinky se mohou pnout po zdi, salát si může hovět v kusu starého okapu, fazole a rajčata budou šplhat třeba po vyhozeném stojanu na klobouky. Taky už to vidíte před sebou? Parádní posezení vysoko nad zemí, v srdci města, a přitom jste obklopeni hrozny vína, rajčaty, citrony a salátem jako na zahrádce. Pouliční ruch lomozí kdesi hluboko pod vámi. A jestli máte jen pár květináčů nebo celou střešní terasu, na tom už zase tolik nezáleží.
