Second Hand book WORTH over £40
Superb book, what more can I say - wish the publisher would refresh / reprint, but KEEP THE QUALITY, the colour pictures are fantastic, I'm no gardener but this makes me a more knowledgable gardener

What you need to know before buying trees & shrubs
This is an invaluable authoritative book, which provides all the information you need to have when deciding to buy a tree or shrub. It is well worth taking to the garden centre to avoid buying unsuitable plants for the site you have in mind. It is profusely illustrated, which is very helpful when trying to identify an unlabelled tree or shrub. You can also use it to choose a tree or shrub that you want, and then use the Plant Finder to find a supplier of the one you have chosen.
