This beautiful, evocative book is a must-have for every gardener who loves the variety and flexibility-and romance-that bulbs and annuals bring to the garden in form, colour and season. Annuals and bulbs are vital elements in garden picture making, in creating formal bedding schemes and drifts; mixed plantings; soft edgings; and pots and window boxes. This essential gardening companion presents over 250 plant entries, each featuring descriptions and important cultivation information, accompanied by a glorious full page photograph and other detail shots.
