About This Book

A practical, illustrated manual offering guidance on selecting, grouping, and planting hardy trees and shrubs suited to English gardens. It explains propagation and pruning techniques, seasonal care, and methods for transplanting, staking, and preserving mature specimens. Dedicated chapters address site-specific challenges such as seaside exposure, wind-swept grounds, poor soils, waterside and rock-garden planting, and urban or small-plot situations. The work surveys major plant groups, including conifers, bamboos, heaths, and variegated and weeping forms, and recommends ornamental uses, hedging, pleaching, orchard and rose management. Appendices and tables list hardy species, while numerous photographs and sketches illustrate ideal forms and groupings.
