Product Description

An ideal gift book, this third volume in the successful series of RHS Treasuries will appeal to lovers of literature and gardening. Familiar wild and garden flowers are explored here in all their moods and mysteries, in words, line and colour. Charles Elliott has brought together a personal selection of poetry and prose from a broad range of writers, from Shakespeare and Milton, to Reginald Farrer and Edward Augustus Bowles, to 20th-century poets such as Marianne Moore and Theodore Roethke. The colour illustrations include botanical prints from the Society's Lindley Library.
