From why Matucana and High Scent sea peas are far superior to the Valerie Harrod variety, to the easy way to sex an earwig, Dr. Ken Thompson provides an expert's miscellany of gardening knowledge, aimed at making you not necessarily a better gardener—but quite probably a far more thoughtful one.

About the Author:
Ken Thompson: Dr Ken Thompson was for twenty years a lecturer in the Department of Animal and Plant Sciences at the University of Sheffield. He writes regularly on gardening for the Daily Telegraph. His previous book, Where Do Camels Belong (Profile, 2013) was described as lively and punchy’ by the Sunday Times.

Review:
'A delight ... if you have simply had enough of people refusing to take gardening seriously, I suggest you buy The Sceptical Gardener' * The Spectator * 'Packed with good, common-sense gardening advice gleaned from years of tending his own patch, it's also very funny' * Waitrose Weekend *
