Rodale's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Perennials

Rodale's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Perennials by Ccolston Burrell

Whether you already garden with perennials or are just starting out, you will find everything you need to know about perennial plants in this impressively comprehensive book. The first part of the book deals with designing with perennials and shows you how to take account of practical requirements, prioritise personal preferences and translate your ideas into the space you have available. The second section covers the gardening basics, climate considerations, pest and disease control and propagation. And the third and largest part of the book is the encyclopedia of perennial plants listed alphabetically by botanical name. Each entry is illustrated with a colour photo and described in detail. Information is given on different varieties of the plant, how the plant should be grown, and the garden uses to which it may be put, including suggestions for appropriate companion plantings.
