Description

When faced with the overwhelming number of plants on offer at garden centres and in catalogues, it can be difficult to choose the right plant for your garden. It's even harder to find something that will flourish in a particular spot. In this book, Rachel de Thame selects the very best plants for specific gardening situations. There are 12 categories in all - everything from climbers for a sunny wall and winter flowering shrubs to plants for a tropical effect. Each section features a short introduction to the topic followed by Rachel's plant recommendations - with six to twelve in each category, the reader has plenty of choice without being overwhelmed. Each plant description is written in a chatty, but informative style and includes practical gardening tips. 100 Star Plants should appeal to beginners and more experienced gardeners alike. Rachel combines fail-safe familiar choices with more unusual options, giving adventurous gardeners a fresh alternative.

Media Reviews

A beginner gardener can get very confused with today's vast array of shrubs, trees, climbers and flower plants. Even an experienced plant-lover is occasionally flummoxed with the never-ending stream of new varieties and cultivars offered in the garden centres. BBC's new star gardener, Rachel de Thame, steps into the breach with this fully illustrated, beautifully photographed selection of her top 100 star plants - plants that no garden should be without, plants for every situation from sun to shade, trees and shrubs for gardens small and large, the currently popular billowy grasses and the ephemeral annuals. All are discussed in a chatty, over-the-garden-fence style, down-to-earth and no-nonsense, making this a user-friendly guide to the best plants currently on offer to gardeners. - Lucy Watson
