This title covers all aspects of gardening, from landscaping and garden maintenance to when and what to plant where. Illustrated directories of trees, shrubs, perennials, ground covers, climbers, annuals, bulbs, roses, herbs, fruit and vegetables list species suited specifically to South African conditions. Brief descriptions, and in some cases suggested uses, are given for each directory entry, as well as user-friendly symbols that allow the reader to establish a plant's needs and growth habits at a glance. Indigenous South African species are listed in each chapter.
