Book Description:
Improbably enough, the eminent English plantswoman's own garden & nursery in East Anglia led her to write these classics, since both problems occur on her property. Her disarmingly simple solution-match the plant to the site, soil, & climate-has succeeded in turning this nursery into one of the world's great horticultural resources.
About the Author:

Winner of ten Gold Medals at Chelsea, she also holds the Royal Horticultural Society?s Victoria Medal of Honour and an honorary doctorate from Essex University for her services to horticulture.
