Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horticulturist's Hand Book By means of this little book the Horticultural Commissioner of Los Angeles County and his staff send greeting to everyone interested in growing plants and trees into whose hands the book may fall, and more especially the careful painstaking fruit growers who have figured so largely in making this and adjoining counties the attractive abiding places which are drawing toward them the appreciative people from all lands. Our office is in business for the purpose of assisting the tree and plant grower in every way possible, not only to get the best results for the present time, but to keep his, and his neighbors' trees in such condition that the future results will be, at least, equally gratifying, and if possible to better the conditions year by year. In this work we have endeavored to meet the need for a collection of useful information along the line of our work, which can be placed in our growers' hands, and which will, in condensed form, give information helpful in almost any problem likely to come to him in his ordinary experience. We do not intend, in any respect, to compete with the very excellent literature issued from our State Agricultural Experiment Station, but to condense and combine the information, in most cases obtained from these bulletins, for more convenient reference in any emergency. We are greatly indebted to this branch of the College of Agriculture, not only for the able treatises on the various insect and plant matters, from which we have obtained much of the data for this work, but also for copies of their illustrations which they have so kindly provided for us; and for assistance in the same way, our State Horticultural Commissioner's office is entitled to our earnest expressions of appreciation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1858 to a wealthy family Ellen Willmott owned three gardens, in England, France and Italy, and employed one hundred and four gardeners. She mixed with royalty and her name was associated with the greatest gardeners of her time, Gertrude Jekyll, William Robinson and E. A. Bowles. In 1894 she joined the Royal Horticultural Society and in 1897 she was one of the first sixty recipients (and one of only two women) to receive the Victoria medal of honour. Warley Garden in Spring and Summer, a book of photographs, was published in 1909 and in 1912 she published The Genus Rosa. In the same year she was awarded the grande médaille Geoffroi St Hilaire from the Société d'Acclimatation de France and in 1924 received the Dean Hole medal from the National Rose Society. An acknowledged and admired expert in her field Ellen Willmott died in 1934 aged 76, alone and nearly bankrupt. First published in 1980 this carefully researched biography is a fascinating account of a woman who was infamous in her time and whose mark can still be seen on the horticultural world today. Miss Willmott of Warley Place is republished to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of Ellen Willmott's birth.
