Pruning & Training Ornamental Plants Reviews

Pruning can appear a daunting prospect - when, how and what with posing confusion questions. This RHS Practical Guide answers all these queries in an easy-to-understand, well laid-out format. Condensing an inordinate amount of information within its 80-odd pages, it provides the easy answer to anyone facing a pruning or training dilemma. Shrubs, trees, standards, pillars, pergolas and hedges are all clearly explained and illustrated. Roses, that ubiquitous subject everyone has an opinion on, is clarified and includes alternative growing methods such as tripods and host plants. An essential addition to this Practical series, a set of which should be on every gardener's bookshelf. - Lucy Watson
