I think it's a straight translation but agree with you on times / conditions etc. It's hard enough coping with the UK's variations. I think, if you use some common sense re timings, it will be useful anywhere temperate. There was talk about an American edition but I only know a little about their growing zones etc. so I don't think that will happen. Oh well, that’s the free holiday gone!

But no, the expense would not be wholly, exclusively and necessarily for business purposes... I was wondering whether the Croatian book is a straight translation or not of your book as the climate must be somewhat different; this would impact planting times etc. A book on gardening is obviously very location specific!

I have written plays, including one about Sherlock Holmes and another about a charity cycleathon in a shopping mall,amongst several other really very English subjects - and my publisher sold quite a lot of them to be translated into Serbo-Croat! Just weird... They are a bit mad in the Croatian publishing world.
