Synopsis:
This book is aimed primarily at enthusiastic amateur gardeners, who should find the text easy to follow, but it should also be of interest to horticultural students and professional gardeners / nurserymen. All of the major groups of plants which need pruning are covered, both outdoors and under glass - trees, shrubs, hedges, topiary specimens, climbers, roses and fruit trees and bushes. All pruning techniques are illustrated with line drawings often on a step-by-step basis.
