Out has gone the traditional recipe for a garden plant guide, plant directory or plant encyclopaedia of compiling a plant's cultural details into a dry and dusty list, decorating with a stock colour photograph, and repeating for 10,000 plants. Instead here's a book that pioneers a radical new recipe for each of maybe 200 popular plants from 100 or so genera. To a simple base of cultural details add the author's personal experience of growing them. Stir in a generous measure of trivia, either directly or peripherally connected to the name, folklore, history and usage of the genus. Spice with a dash of the author's own wry perspective, and serve in digestible portions. The result is destined to please the palate of most gardeners, and perhaps even some non-gardeners too.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lulu.com","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46891913805975,"sku":"9781411685659","price":1707.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781411685659.webp?v=1770277432","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-trouble-with-plants-tales-of-trivia-and-tribulation-from-an-english-garden-9781411685659","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
