A wide-ranging vintage reference for hardy perennial planting

T. W. Sanders’s substantial gardening guide gathers descriptions and cultivation information for a broad selection of hardy perennials. Organized around individual plants—from Acaena and Achillea to Allium, Anchusa, and Anemone—it addresses growing them in formal beds and borders as well as wild, woodland, and waterside gardens. Propagation is also part of the book’s practical scope, making it more than a plant-identification catalogue. First published as a period gardening resource and reissued with a new introduction on gardening history, the volume offers both hands-on horticultural material and a window onto older gardening reference traditions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Gardeners building or maintaining perennial beds and borders
  • Those planning planting for woodland, wild, or waterside areas
  • Collectors and users of vintage horticultural reference books
