Home & Garden 8 August 2025

Edgars Books & News in Wangaratta have a large variety of books and magazines to inspire your next home or garden project.

Tree Houses Within Reach by Derek Deek Diedricksen showcases wildly different and eclectic tree houses which will inspire anyone who has ever dreamed of building a tree house of their own. Ranging from simple platform structures to raised office spaces, these houses prove that a tree house can be creative, useful, and beautiful while still being affordable and accessible to those with modest building skills.

In The Sceptical Botanist, Tim Entwistle crafts 50 beautiful essays which shine a gentle light on everyday questions about plants and gardens, and guides the reader through fact and fiction. He asks questions like ‘Do trees talk to one another?’ and ‘Can a plant use up the oxygen in a room while you sleep?’

Edgars also have Reed Concise Guides to help you identify flowers, trees, birds, insects, frogs and reptiles as well as specific bird identification and field guides and guides for keeping bees.

If you have an interest in local flora and fauna, home restoration, interior design, outdoor or craft projects, there are books and magazines to help you make the most of your time and budget.

There is plenty more to inspire you in the home and garden at Edgars Books & News so browse in store at 55 Murphy Street or online at www.edgarsbooksandnews.com.au.
