When Nicola Ferguson first started gardening, she couldn't find a book that would help her with her new cold, shady garden, so she wrote one herself.
The result is an outstanding reference guide that leads gardeners quickly and easily to the plants that will grow well in their own gardens – whatever the conditions. Over 1,400 plants are systematically organised according to practical considerations such as soil type and light level, as well as purpose and appearance.
This established gardening classic has now been completely updated for the twenty-first century. Each illustrated plant is accompanied by a detailed description including height, hardiness, flowering season and growing needs. Whether you are an amateur or professional; whether your garden is big or small, windswept or shady, with soil that is chalky or acid, damp or dry; and whether you want climbers or ground-cover, silver leaves or winter flowers, 'Right Plant Right Place' condenses a shelf-full of reference books and catalogues into one comprehensive guide to ensure that you always make the right choice.
