Focusing on the principles behind production practices and their scientific basis, rather than detailed biological traits of each crop, this text outlines successes and failures in practices to date and sets out how the quantity and quality of horticultural produce can improve in the future. Case studies are frequently used and chapters cover the production of vegetables, fruit and ornamental crops, including temperate zone crops adapted to grow in the tropics.

He subsequently became Director of the Botanic Gardens and remained so until 1949. In that year, he was appointed Professor of Botany at the new University of Singapore, retiring in 1954. While he was in Singapore and later, when he went back to England after retirements, Professor Holttum devoted detailed study to orchids, bamboos and ferns, and wrote several authoritative treatises on them.
