Description

---

This is volume III of "The Modern Flower Garden" series, dealing primarily with annual and biennial plants. Annuals are plants that are planted in the spring, grow throughout the summer, and die with frost. Biennials are planted the first year and bloom in the second. This volume contains all a gardener needs to know about these types of plants, from planting and propagating to pruning and pests. Highly recommended green-fingered enthusiasts and collectors of vintage gardening literature. Contents include: "First Considerations", "Planning and Arrangement", "Maintenance and Upkeep", and "Winter Work". Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
