Two previously published titles, "Perennials for your Garden" and "Alpines for your Garden", both now out of print, are brought together in this book, "Hardy Plants and Alpines". Whenever asked to classify alpines and perennials separately, Alan Bloom notes that he was hampered by the fact that there is no clear distiction to be drawn, since so many so-called alpines or rock garden plants are adaptable and suitable for growing in front of taller plants. Beautiful colour plates with plant descriptions and a quick guide to selection of perennials by soil type, colour, flowering month, height, specimens, attractive forms, ferns, ornamental grasses, foliage, ground cover, evergreen, sun/shade, acid/alkali etc.
