Practical Bamboos the 50 Best Plants for Screens, Containers & More by Paul Whittaker

Practical Bamboos features the 50 best bamboos based on appearance and usefulness. A handy checklist allows readers to pick plants that are right for them at a glance. A section on using bamboo in the garden covers topics such as incorporating bamboos in the mixed border, using them to create Japanese-style or Mediterranean-style gardens, using them for hedges and edging, establishing them in containers, choosing the right ones for difficult places, and selecting the best plants for small gardens or waterside planting.

Paul Whittaker has been a nurseryman, planter, and consultant in the horticulture industry for over thirty years. He owns PW Plants, a nursery in Norfolk, England, with his wife Diana that specializes in decorative grasses and bamboos. Paul's foliage displays have won numerous RHS gold medals at Royal Horticultural Society exhibitions. He also writes for gardening periodicals, gives talks around the country, appears on local radio shows, and hosts workshops and events at his nursery and garden.
