Gardens for People with Asthma and Allergies.
Spring and summer can be months of sheer misery for many people. Up to two million people suffer from seasonal hay fever in Australia and New Zealand. More seriously, others have seasonal asthma or increasing asthma during these months.
This book is packed with information on low allergy gardening for people with allergies or allergy-based illnesses such as asthma, hayfever and dermatitis. It is in three parts.
Part 1 deals with allergies - what causes them, their role in asthma, hayfever and skin rashes and the role of plants causing allergies.
Part 2 looks at plants - which ones to plant and which to avoid.
Part 3 discusses how to garden without worsening your allergies.
Pollen calendars for Australia and New Zealand are included.
