Interesting book with plenty of good size photographs, but it falls into the same trap as all other books I have come across on dry gardening.

Large A-Z of perennial plants - more integrated than some of the older RHS which would separate illsutrations from text details.

In this encyclopedia each entry gives latin name and family, brief descrption, details on cultivation, propagation and problems as well as varities and cultivars. Illustrated with a limited number of photos.

Very text heavy guide to perennials, few photos and some line drawings for illustration. Book presented in sections relating to seasons: winter into spring, spring, summer and latecomers. Useful if you are familiar with a number if plants, much more difficult if you are more visually orientated.
