The Complete Book of Fruit Growing in Australia by Louis Glowinski is the go-to reference for anyone who wants to harvest everything from apples to finger limes in Australian soils. This updated 1997 second edition packs 400 illustrated pages of practical advice on choosing, planting, and pruning fruit-bearing trees for temperate, subtropical, and tropical regions alike.

Generously sized and fully illustrated, the trade paperback walks gardeners through propagation, pest control, and variety selection with clear photos and easy-to-follow diagrams. Beginners gain confidence, seasoned growers find new cultivars, and all readers appreciate the botanic insights that explain why certain techniques work in Australia’s unique climates.

This copy is clean and tight: no handwriting, highlighting, or dog-eared corners, just a light edge scuff from shelf life. The sturdy binding and crisp interior make it ready for seasons of garden consultations or weekend reading under the pergola.

Whether you’re planning a backyard orchard or a balcony pot of citrus, Glowinski’s authoritative guide remains a trusted companion for sustainable, fruitful harvests down under.
