A practical and inspirational guide to year-round color in the garden

^¦ery gardener's ideal is to have a flow er ^ in bloom throughout the year. To achie\'e this goal, Nigel Colborn describes the succession of \i'onderful plants that contribute to the flo\\ ering year and ad^'ises on how to site, plant, and nurture them.
More than 365 different flo\\ ers from the exquisite blossoms of budding trees through shrubs, perennials, and bulbs are described. With over 220 full-color photographs and 35 illustrations, the full diversity of nou ering plants is revealed in a narrative text that mo^'es through the seasons.
A key premise of the book is to turn description into reality and to enable the reader to gro\\-a wide variety of plants. Achie\ ing such a goal requires planning and forethought, and Colborn draws on his ^¦ast knowledge of the plant world and practical experience as a gardener to recommend plants that will complement each other and ensure a succession of color.
The text is rich in information on ho\\- best to situate and look after chosen plants, instructions to ensure continuous flo\>ering, ad\ ice for selecting a choice cadre of species, even for the dead of \\ inter, as ivell as historical notes and anecdotes of indi\'idual plants, and a guide to rele\ ant plant associations.
