DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Alpine Flowers and Rock Gardens: Illustrated in Colour No apology need be offered for adding one more to the growing list of books on rock plants, since the present provides a special feature in the form of an extensive and beautiful series of colour groups of Alpines taken direct from Nature. The opportunity furnished by their publication is taken advantage of to show how equally charming pictures may be provided in British and American gardens, by making a suitable choice of site, stones, soil and plants. The contribution on Alpine plants in their native habitats by Mr. W. Graveson forms a valuable addition to the general information which it is my privilege to provide.
