Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (£14.95), previous owner's book plate and note stating this book bought at Great Dixter 30th May 1990, on ffep, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 479pp, lavishly illustrated. A classic work, now throughly revised and updated, by gardener Chrstopher Lloyd (1921-2006), who combines a passionate love of his subject with a critical intelligence and a good helping of wit. THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is packed with the sort of information keen gardeners crave, from planting, weeding and the pleasures of propagation to annuals, water lilies and vegetables. Hailed as a masterpiece when it was first published, THE WELL-TEMPERED GARDEN is as fresh, enlightening and necessary for gardeners in the 21st century as it was when it first appeared nearly fifty years ago.
