Few hardy flowering plants have as much to offer as the pansy, viola or violetta. Easily cultivated and very resistant to pests and diseases, they guarantee flowers from spring until autumn and are in many ways the ideal garden flowers. This guide covers every aspect of the subject of pansies, violas and violettas: the history and development of the garden pansy; the introduction of viola and violetta; techniques of propagation, cultivation and exhibition; and raising new varieties. Together with a substantial descriptive list of named hybrid varieties and details of specialist nurseries, it also includes lists of recommended species and advice on raising plants from seeds.

Excerpt from Pansies, Violas Violets The title to this volume will not be likely to confuse the amateur, for, in speaking of the plants, he is accustomed to use the names in the senses they are now employed. At the same time, for reasons pointed out by Mr. Cuthbertson in his Introduction, the terms cannot be regarded as appropriate, for in botany the word Viola includes every section of the genus. In these matters, however, it is frequently custom rather than botanical science that establishes practice, and this applies to the present case. The lowly plants Mr. Cuthbertson treats upon are amongst the most floriferous, most showy, most pleasantly fragrant flowers in the outdoor garden, and no one has more closely studied their culture than the present author. By including Pansies and Violas in the "Present-Day Gardening" series, readers are provided for the first time with coloured plates setting forth the flowers in the most natural manner photographs can illustrate them. I am indebted to Mr. W. Irving for notes on some of the more important species in the genus Viola. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Gardening with Shape, Line and Texture bridges the gap between garden design books and plant reference encyclopedias. Leading landscaper Linden Hawthorne looks at plants from a designer's perspective (where color is often a secondary consideration) and emphasizes the important roles of plant shape. Part One reviews fine art principles and shows how they can be successfully applied to plant compositions by grouping plants into three heights: ground to knee, knee to navel, and navel to crown. She identifies different plant shapes—buns, mounds, tiers, fountains, uprights—and shows how the use of them contributes to the success of the finished design. Part Two is a plant sourcebook with plants listed alphabetically within their key plant shape categories. This innovative plant reference delivers plant information in a form that neatly dovetails with the garden design process and will inspire gardeners to look beyond color and begin to appreciate the whole plant.
