Product Description
Product Description
Alpines have been a favourite plant for generations of gardeners and are as popular now as ever. Historically they were used in rockeries, but they offer far more potential for today's gardens, which are generally becoming smaller. Whether planted in troughs, window boxes, raised beds or between paving, alpines offer fantastic versatility and colour for nearly every month of the year.

At last, a long overdue book on alpines from one of the country's top alpine plantsmen. Easy to read, well explained and presented with a good selection of photographs and illustrations. Plenty of advice on the major pitfalls you are likely to encounter. Best of all, a mouth-watering, hand picked selection of nearly 200 tried and tested species and varieties. Well worth the price.

The book was advertised as 'not as new' but in ' acceptable condition' so I decided to take the risk. On receipt I was amazed to find it indistinguishable from new so am delighted./
