The introductory chapters on cultivation, plant hardiness and more make interesting reading, and the book includes grasses and ferns listed separately.

In addition, Graham Stuart Thomas covers a wealth of related subjects, including display, shad and moisture, tender plants, pests and diseases, and other useful lists and suggestions for particular need. Throughout this masterly work, Graham Stuart Thomas conveys his immense experience of plants and gardens to provide the standard work of reference on the subject.
