This antiquarian volume contains an accessible and concise guide to
pruning, with information on the correct methods for pruning rose trees,
fruit trees, ornamental trees and shrubs, and many other plants commonly
found in the garden. Written in simple, clear language and profusely
illustrated, this text will be of considerable utility to anyone with an
interest in gardening, and it would make for a great addition to
collections of gardening literature. Although old, the information
contained within its pages is timeless, and will be of as much service
to modern readers as it was when first published. We are republishing
this vintage text now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a
specially commissioned biography of the author.
