Definitely one for the book shelf, both novice or professional gardener...
At the time of writing this review I haven't completely read this book yet but from what I know and have seen so far, it's certainly one for the collection. The author is a renowned name in the gardening world of books and this certainly comes out in the vast amount of useful information the book contains. My copy was an ex-library book and in good condition. I knew about this book before I purchased it, having seen it at my sisters. The book is packed with useful information about countless flowers and includes details on plant likes and dislikes in terms of soil type, sun & shade, wet or dry habitats, plant heights for positioning in the borders, to name but a few. This is truly a must for anyone with an interest in gardening, from the complete novice to the professional gardener. Definitely one for the book shelf and a really useful book if your looking for inspiration or just ideas of what to plant in your garden.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent contents and well set out, but the NEW version is even better. I have the latest one myself and wished to send the same to a friend.
The book itself is excellent, but I ordered the NEW Flower Expert and the one I received is a previous edition.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

probably the best book for gardening beginners and really useful to more experienced gardeners
I've owned this book for decades and recently bought a replacement as the original was getting tatty with so much use. The book is superb, covers all the common plants found in British gardens and I used it when I first set up as a plant nurseryman over 30 years ago. It concisely describes each plant, where to plant it,how big it gets and how to propagate it. I still refer to it even after so many years as a nurseryman. It's light to handle and I wouldn't be without it. I also own all the other books in "The Expert" series.I highly recommend this book .Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
