Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rock Garden IN the whole history of gardening there has never been soimuch interest taken in the cultivation of alpines as there is to-day. Not very many years ago it was quite exceptional to find a rock garden worthy of the name in any but the largest of our private gardens. To-day, however, a garden of any appreciable dimensions is not considered complete unless it contains a portion devoted to the cultivation of alpines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Rock-Garden Nowadays it is, indeed, becoming for a new 'gardening book to slink into the world under cover of an apology; and it had been my intention to plead, in excuse, that this volume of mine held no presumptuous notion of giving help to any rival gardener (for all true gardeners are rivals). I see, however, that such a plea would at once make publication a mere impertinence. There fore I will frankly hope that some of my readers may consider this book's existence justified by the help it gives them. But if some are inclined to resent the appearance of yet another work on gardening, others may well cavil, I fear, at its confessed incompleteness and inadequacy. To these I plead that only the most stringent considerations of 'space could have compelled the many omissions that they will mark in my pages. I had originally dealt faithfully with all my plants, and if any reader now vainly search this book for a detailed treatment of Aethionema, Silene, Lychnis, Veronica, and many another treasure, let him blame not me, but the pitiless blue pencil that made such a massacre of the innocents. Faced by cruel alternatives, I chose rather. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Plants for the Rock Garden 1924 Classic Reprint written by Bobbink And Atkins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plants for the Rock-Garden, 1924 Another point of great importance is the proper building of the garden. This should be done step by step, building both soil and rock together, which eliminates the possibility of holes between the rocks, as is often the case with so-called rockeries that are merely a heap of stones with soil thrown over them, or vice versa. The rocks should be placed more or less flat, in such manner that the water will run-into'the soil and not drain off. When in this position, the-rocks protect the roots from heat and drought in summer and severe frost in winter. The pockets should be large enough to allow ample space for soil, and in places where roots can grow unobstructed between the rocks. An annual top-dressing of soil in spring_ aids in keeping the trailing stems in place, as well as being beneficial to all the pl.ants The soil should be watched in summer and kept moist by watering. It IS advisable to plant small evergreens throughout the rockery, so that a winter effect can be obtained, even when the flowering plants have died down. The latter should be selected from, those varieties that will collectively cover a long season of bloom. The bog plants, if any, should be near the pool or stream. All the varieties named in this list have been tried and have proved highly satisfactory for Rock Garden planting, the majority being essentially rock-plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Rock Garden, Vol. 1 Upon the knowledge that the treasures we possess are but a tithe of those that we may some day come to have. And, since cata logues each year are helping us to fill these voids, it became obvious that such a book as this, to have more than ephemeral value, must run ahead of collectors, and give authoritative notes, not only on all species that are grown, but also on all such as ought to be. In other words, I set myself to peruse my authorities, not only with a view to dealing fairly by the plants we know, but also to anticipating many catalogues as yet unborn, by discovering, through a veil of cumbrous Latin, any promise of beauty in species that we do not possess. So that in future, when confronted with the offer of a beautiful unknown, collectors may be able to refer to this volume, there to ascertain whether indeed it be beautiful or no. That such a guide is complete, or ever can be, I should, of course, be the last to claim: at the same time it cannot but be that this book will be able to make accessible a large amount of information on plants and matter hitherto unknown or buried in learned works of difficult attainment and digestion. But if you were to compile a full list of all plants possible for the rock garden, whether good or bad, no library would hold the number cf volumes to which such a work would run. Therefore (seeing that I have already exceeded the space allotted me by exactly the same amount again) my work has had to be severely selective, and my own personal taste must be held responsible for many omissions; while yet others will have been due to oversight, or to the inability of a botanical diagnosis to give any fair notion of the beauty belonging to the plant it frigidly describes.
