Additional information
by George Glenny (Author)
First published in 1879, "Floriculture" is a comprehensive guide to planting, propagating and caring for the finest garden flowers. Written in simple, clear language and profusely illustrated, this timeless guide contains all the information a gardener needs to know and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Also included is a year-long calendar of tasks to keep your garden on track and looking beautiful. Contents include: "Phlox Perennial", "Picotee", "Pink", "Plumbago Capensis", "Polyanthus", "Primula Sinesis", "Primrose", "Ranunculus", "Rhododendron", "Rose", "Salvia", "Scarlet Geranium", "Sedum", "Snowdrop", "Soils", "Soils and Potting", "Stocks", "Suitable Plants", "Sweat Pea", "Syringing", "Tools and their Uses", "Tulips", "Violet", Zinnia", "Washing Plants", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
