The Encyclopaedia Of Garden Work And Terms - 9781444652123

This extensive reference book is a complete encyclopaedia of gardening, explaining in alphabetical sequence terms of the culture and propagation of hardy and half-hardy plants, trees and shrubs, orchids, ferns, fruit, vegetables, hothouse and greenhouse plants, etc. including diseases, treatments, their specific and common names. The gardener is provided with a comprehensive encyclopaedia which not only gives brief descriptions of all the plants they are likely to meet but also complete information regarding their cultivation. In its complete and unabridged original form it is extensively illustrated and full of instruction that is as useful and practical today as it was when originally published. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
