How to get more plants for free? How to obtain that rarity so elusive at the garden centres? How to get your hands on so many plants cheaply for that hedge or parterre? Easy - grow your own and with the expert advice offered here, it is made simple for all. The expertise of the Royal Horticultural Society is beyond doubt. On the brink of celebrating its centenary, the Society has promoted horticultural excellence and training since its inception. Written by experts in layman's terms, this is both a visual and written guide to the topic of plant propagation. Lavishly illustrated and clearly captioned, over 1500 plants from trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, houseplants, bulbs and vegetables are covered with techniques ranging from cuttings, division and seed. This is THE definitive guide and a must for every gardener. - Lucy Watson
