500 Best Garden Plants by Patrick Taylor
From the range of plants available to the gardener, Patrick Taylor selects and describes plants that are the very best of their kind. The book is divided into five main sections - trees, shrubs, climbers, herbaceous perennials, and bulbs. This allows similar plants to be described together and planting solutions to be given for specific gardening problems. Natural species and forms are emphasized and only cultivars that have proved their worth are included. For each plant, there is advice on its best use in the garden and ideas for association plantings, as well as details of cultivation, hardiness, propagation and its origins.
Patrick Taylor is, in the words of The Times, 'one of those rare creatures who can both photograph gardens and write about them successfully. 'He is the author of many books including the Sunday Telegraph Guide to Gardens of Britain & Ireland, Making Gardens, Gardens of France and Period Gardens. He has a column in Gardens Illustrated and is a regular contributor to The Garden (The Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society) and other magazines and newspapers. Patrick Taylor lives and gardens in Somerset.
