A biennial plant is a flowering plant that requires a period of two years to fully complete its biological life cycle, whereas an annual plant completes its cycle within one year before dying. This volume offers timeless, expert tips on the best annuals and biennials for various garden types, giving instructions on how they should be selected and used. Written in simple, clear language and profusely illustrated, Annuals & Biennials is highly recommended for gardens new and old with an interest in the subject. Gertrude Jekyll (1843 - 1932) was a British garden designer, horticulturist, photographer, craftswoman, artist, and writer. She is responsible for designing and creating over 400 gardens in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States, as well as writing more than 1,000 articles for related magazines. She is credited with having had a significant influence on gardening by both British and American enthusiasts. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
