Ible than the man Who indulges him self in finding out faults With which he takes a pleasure in taunting his neighbours, and little more do I esteem those who publish the errors of others, merely for the purpose of shewing to the world, that they can ride through a country With their eyes Open.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the rapid decline of fruit trees in the United Kingdom, particularly cider-producing apple trees in the Hereford area. The author, with years of expertise in horticulture, examines the causes behind this decline, including disease, insects, inadequate care, and the abandonment of orchards in favor of more profitable land use. The author discusses various topics, including the proper care and maintenance of fruit trees, including grafting, pruning, and protection from pests and diseases. The author also provides a natural history of some of the most destructive insects that infest fruit trees, including the American blight, and offers practical advice on how to control and eradicate them. The book concludes with an overview of the challenges facing fruit production in the UK and suggests ways to restore the health and productivity of orchards and promote the cultivation of a wider variety of fruit trees.
