Written by someone who really knows his plants, this book contains a wealth of information, all the more so because often the plant descriptions include the personal comments from the author as to the plants' garden worthiness.

It is well presented and the basics about each plant such as size, flower colour, flowering period and more are clearly set out, along with occasionally any special merits indicated by the relevant symbol. Also sometimes included are quotes from other notable gardeners. The introductory chapters on cultivation, plant hardiness and more make interesting reading, and the book includes grasses and ferns listed separately. Also included are various lists such as suggestions for other garden books, nurserymen and more.

This may not be the best illustrated book, but the book is not about pictures, it is about informed comment, at at that it succeeds 100%. It is always one of the first books I turn to for information on and assessments of perennial plants. ( )
