First published in 1926 this historical gardening book is a detailed study of gardening in this former british colony. In its complete and unabridged original form, containing information on once rare and exotic but now more readily available plants, it is full of instruction that is as useful and practical today as it was when originally published. A worthy addition to the bookshelf of any gardening enthusiast. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
