'Mea Allan has selected ten of the great plant families, illustrated throughout with spring-fresh watercolours and delicate line drawings to compare one towering lily with its hot-house sister, a hundred-petaled shrub rose with its simple plum cousins.
The first book to group flowers together in this most natural of ways and is designed to help gardeners in planning, care and maintenance, with all the necessary information to keep your green family happy and flourishing.'
