This guide is designed to introduce some of our native plants, revealing them as useful, charming, disease-resistant and hardworking additions to conventional gardens, rather than as threatening weeds.
Written with infectious enthusiasm by a professional field researcher, it celebrates the remarkable qualities of our native plants, and describes their close involvement in our own heritage in the hope that revealing their rich history may help secure them a place in the future.
Species accounts are organised into chapters focussing on the seasons when the plants have their greatest garden value
