About this title

Synopsis:

Distinguished plantsman and gardening writer David Joyce makes his choice of the best flowers – beautiful, distinctive and easy to cultivate – for the garden and for arrangements. 250 first-choice plants, all illustrated and over a thousand plants in all are described together with growing instructions and advice on how to make original and striking displays in the garden and the house throughout the year. The information is suitable for all sizes and styles of garden, and all gardeners, whether experienced or novice. It also highlights flowers that are suitable for cutting and suggests how best to use the garden as a source of material for the house, featuring striking close-up photography illustrating the unique characteristics of flower features.
