Part of a series, this portable illustrated pocket guide to garden trees contains over 1000 plant portraits. The plants are arranged by flower colour and season of interest, for ease of use by every enthusiastic gardener. The main section of the book is the plant catalogue which begins with a short introduction on garden planning that explores the ornamental characteristics of each plant group and how to make the best use of them in the garden. Practical techniques the gardener may need for successful planting, propagation, pruning and maintenance are provided. Each method is explained clearly and simply, avoiding technical terms, and is illustrated using step-by-step sequences.
