What Our Customers Say...
Description
Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding
The third edition of this work.
In the publisher's original cloth binding.
Illustrated with a frontispiece and many vignettes.
A series of useful guides and descriptions of alpine flowers, including the proposal of planting species of alpine in small rock gardens, a practise which quickly caught on, becoming commonplace in many English gardens.
Robinson offered many other major influences within English gardening, with ideas about wild gardening spurring the movement that led to the popularising of the English cottage garden.
