Celebrated plantsman Roy Lancaster's birth on 5th December 1937 was the start of something big for plants and horticulture. His chance find of a Mexican tobacco plant in a local allotment brought him fame as a Bolton schoolboy and sowed the seeds of his future career. This book is the story of his adventures as he sees tropical plants for the first time in the jungles of Malaya, meets Roberto Burle Marx at his garden near Rio de Janeiro, and hunts for pitcher plants in North America. Well-known for his encylopedic botanical knowledge and for introducing many popular garden plants, Roy is also a consummate story-teller and wise philosopher. His acute sense of life's comic moments, spirited sense of adventure and respect for the natural world make this a remarkable read.

Since Trees of Victoria was first produced in 1966, it has become widely known as the standard introduction to the Victorian bush, having sold over 160,000 copies. The Fifth Edition (1994) was a complete revision, and was greatly enlarged to describe some 250 species of trees and tall shrubs - almost all that are native to Victoria, southern NSW (including the ACT) and South Australia eastwards from Adelaide. This sixth edition (2006) incorporates taxonomic and other changes made since 1994, updated distribution information, and reference to additional species, some being recently described. With its clear illustrations, accurate descriptions and compact format, the book will continue to meet the needs of beginners in the bush exploration, as well as botanical students, land managers and conservationists.

A timeless gardening classic by Christopher Lloyd, one of Britain's most highly respected plantsmen, updated for the 21st century. With a new foreword by Anna Pavord. This is a classic work by a gardener who combines a passionate love of his subject with a critical intelligence and a good helping of wit. THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is packed with the sort of information keen gardeners crave - from planting, weeding and the pleasures of propagation to annuals, water lilies and vegetables. Hailed as a masterpiece when it was first published, THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is as fresh, enlightening and necessary for gardeners in the 21st century as it was when it first appeared more than 40 years ago.
