Herbalist's Herbal. Urban and Rural Gardener

Two centuries before Michurin and other famous breeders, the mysterious "translator from German" Nikita Rakhmanov was obtaining apples and pears or peaches and almonds from the same tree. He cultivated apples with exotic aromas and flavors, inlaid with precious stones.... He grew melons in the Moscow region, harvested a full crop of lettuce in one day, and knew many other techniques. Yuri Komarov, a renowned herbalist, healer, and gardener, significantly modernized the archaic language of a rare ancient book and supplemented it with his own comments on the results he achieved by following the advice of a breeder from 200 years ago. .
