What is it: A new and fresh look at gardening in a wide diversity of pots containers. There’s a strong emphasis on using upcycled containers from tin cans and water tanks through to old boots and suitcases, as well as more architectural pots. Forty projects are laid out in recipe style, with step-by step instructions, with chapters on how to get started and materials and plants. Best line: No ma er how much, or how li le space you have, containers help us to bring greenery, scents, colours and edibles into our lives. Kyle Books, £16.99
