Perennial flowers are more than just trustworthy plants that grow and bloom for years. They are the classics, the sentimental favourites, the plants that find lasting places in our hearts and gardens. As a group they are generous, blooming freely, growing easily and multiplying quickly. By their nature, perennials form the foundation of many gardens. This book presents perennial flowers in their brilliant colour groups - hot, warm, cool, pastel and neutral. It presents over 250 plant entries, each featuring descriptions and important cultivation information, accompanied by full-page photographs and other detail shots. A collection of favourites rather than a definitive guide, this is an introduction to the magical, beautiful world of flowering perennials.
