What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Leather Binding

First edition. Illustrated with a frontispiece and fourteen plates. Collated complete. A charming study on some of the most admired of all our cultivated flowers - the lily. Whether in open garden or in the greenhouse or conservatory, they have been some of the most misunderstood of plants. This volume intends to provide simple and helpful instruction on the care and cultivation of different hybrids and selected strains. Written by Daniel Thompson Macfie, a British author of gardening and beekeeping books, best known for his notable guide "Practical Beekeeping and Honey Production". Dated from the British Library.

Condition

Bound in half calf with cloth covered boards. Externally, smart with light rubbing to the extremities and fading to the spine. The odd small mark to the boards. Hinges just starting but firm. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot.

Very Good
