-> Palms & Cycads

Author: Martyn Graham

Palms provide strong, natural focal points in a garden and, as hardy evergreens, add year-round interest and a touch of the exotic. Martyn Graham explains how to make the most of the variations they offer in foliage color, shape and texture and how to use this to create successful borders and garden designs. Covering mixed plantings, hard landscaping, and the use of tubs, planters and other containers, this book reveals how to display palms and palm-like plants to dramatic effect.

As the availability of hardy palms increases, gardeners around the world are blessed with a wider choice of varieties and greater freedom in establishing a specific character for their garden. Over 100 of the most readily available species are listed in an extensive directory, providing an instant reference for each. Hardiness ratings and notes on individual growing requirements identify which plants will flourish in your garden, and full descriptions of flowers, fruits and leaves help you choose the plants that will provide the color and interest you desire.

This book also includes essential advice on: planting, maintenance, pests and diseases, and propagation.
