Abstract
THE first part is concerned entirely with roses, and includes twenty-four pages of letterpress. The writer discourses upon roses from the point of view of the garden decorator rather than that of the exhibitor, and, indeed, the mere exhibitor is given very little consideration. This is very natural in such a work as this, which is undoubtedly intended for amateurs who wish to grow flowers for their own sake alone, and not for the glory that attends the winning of prizes at competitive exhibitions.
Beautiful Flowers and How to Grow Them.
To be completed in 17 parts. Edited by Horace J. Wright Walter P. Wright. With 100 coloured plates. (London: T. C. and E. C. Jack.) Price 1s. net each part.
