Comments

In my research into books useful to a gardener, the public do not want books written in botanical language like

Flora of the British Isles by A.R. Clapham, University of Sheffield, T.G. Tutin , University College, Leicester and E.F. Warburg , University of Oxford . Cambridge at the University Press 1952 or
Flora of China in www.eFloras.org

because the general public has not learnt the biology language.

Up to 1900-1920 many books were written as essays. Today, people do not spend the time reading essays to find out that on

page 552 that if you stand a potted Gerheitz minor plant in tepid Guinness for precisely 12.89 seconds, that it will give a sudden burst of growth, or on
page 1856 that a blue flowered primrose in July in the Isle of Wight is called Primrose 'Astounding'.

Gertrude Jekyll writes very nice books which when I am completely retired at the age of 142, I shall read to send me to sleep.

Sander's Enclyopaedia of Gardening first appeared in serial form in Amateur Gardening. For 5 years from November 15th 1890 until August 10th 1895 it appeared, a column or so at a time until at last the work was completed. It was then produced as a book and had an immediate success. For the first time the gardener was provided with a comprehensive enclopaedia which not only gave brief descriptions of all the plants he was ever likely to meet but also complete information regarding their cultivation. Moreover this enclopaedia was so compact that it could be carried around easily and so be available as a contant source of reference indoors or out. This book was continually revised and was still being published in 1960. The one I am using still uses a specific compost for each different plants. I think the later editions have gone to using 1 of the John Innes mixtures instead.

The books written between 1900 and 1958 (including the very well written books on gardening produced during the second world war to get joe public to grow his own vegetables, fruit, chickens were very erudite) provided much more cultivation details than books currently published.

If you look at my Library and see how it has been split up, one notices that most modern books are coffee table books with pictures and little information and some are misleading like the one by Stephen Lacey.

We have the opportunity in this world to create something that would be useful to many people, but at the moment unless someone can make zillions out of it for very little effort then nothing happens. At least I am trying. At least Wikimedia Commons provides some photos.

When Percy Thrower was on the television then you were taught something about gardening, the modern TV programmes just entertain but not teach.

I would love it if I could get photos of plants that I can verify are the plant specified and that I can get the cultivation details as well to provide to the public, but 99.999% of nurseries will not supply or allow me to come and take my own photos; unless money is involved - unlike the 5 days taking photos without touching them of the roses growing in the nursery of R.V. Roger free of charge to me.

Mrs Desmond Underwood's Ramparts Nursery is being rebuilt through the offices of The Scottish Rock Garden Club.
Grey and Silver Plants by Mrs Desmond Underwood. Published 1971. ISBN 0 00 214056 x.
The hardiness rating serves as a general guide to growing conditions as interpreted by the RHS. Mrs Desmond Underwood defines her hardiness rating as used in the rows below as:-

1. For plants capable of standing frost pockets and a certain amount of damp.
2. For those that will grow in any ordinary garden soil that does no puddle during periods of thaw.
3. For varieties which will grow on any well drained soil, including well worked clay at the top of a slope.
4. This denotes the old 'half-hardies' which need hot dry beds or tubs. Plants coded 4 survived the winter of 1962-3.
5. For those 'half-hardies' which have survived all the winters except 196-3 on my well-drained field at Colchester.
6. Definitely for tender plants which, though capable of surviving slight frosts, have not been known to overwinter here.

This book provides the information about the following plants:-

Acaena adscendens (Sheep's burr, Acaena magellanica,
New Zealand Burr)

Procumbent. Spreads up to 1 square yard (36 x 36 inches) or 90 x 90 cms

April-May

April by drastic thinning

Layering in Summer. The young plants can then be moved to another site from April to september in the following year

For ground cover

South America; New Zealand.
2.

Culture

Extremely vigorous. Young plants are quite capable of throwing out 5 or 6 of 8 inch (20 cm) branches within 6 weeks of planting. These creep along and usually root into the ground.This plant is probably most effective when placed on top of a low wall or bank so that the branches can flow down over the edge. The little purple bobbles, which call themselves flowers are insignificant, but colour is provided by the leaf-bearing stems which turn cherry red as the wood matures.
For safety's sake, it is advisable to separate the rooted new shoot from the parent at least 14 days before trying to lift it. Young plants should always be stopped when about 6 inches (15 cm) tall.

Achillea argentea (Sweet Nancy)

Cushion. Height 6 inches (15 cms), allow 12 inches (30 cms) width

April-June

No pruning is necessary

Division in April. Cuttings will root in the open and covered with a jar in July or ones in April need bottom heat

2.

Culture

The perfect little silver cushion it makes is always bright and cheerful from April through to November. Young plants take a few months to settle in and seldom cover more than 9 inches (22.5 cm) in their first season. Overcrowding spoils the cushion effect.

Culture

The garish yellow of these flowers may not appeal to everyone, for it is a very difficult colour to place. Nevertheless the long leaves of 'Moonshine' make a superb tussock and many town gardeners have discovered that it can be kept as a silvery mound if the flowering growth is cut out as soon as it starts to run.

The following details come from Cactus Art:-

"A flower is the the complex sexual reproductive structure of Angiosperms, typically consisting of an axis bearing perianth parts, androecium (male) and gynoecium (female).

Bisexual flower show four distinctive parts arranged in rings inside each other which are technically modified leaves: Sepal, petal, stamen & pistil. This flower is referred to as complete (with all four parts) and perfect (with "male" stamens and "female" pistil). The ovary ripens into a fruit and the ovules inside develop into seeds.

Incomplete flowers are lacking one or more of the four main parts. Imperfect (unisexual) flowers contain a pistil or stamens, but not both. The colourful parts of a flower and its scent attract pollinators and guide them to the nectary, usually at the base of the flower tube.

partsofaflowersmallest

Androecium (male Parts or stamens)
It is made up of the filament and anther, it is the pollen producing part of the plant. Anther This is the part of the stamen that produces and contains pollen.  Filament This is the fine hair-like stalk that the anther sits on top of. Pollen This is the dust-like male reproductive cell of flowering plants.

Gynoecium (female Parts or carpels or pistil)  It is made up of the stigma, style, and ovary. Each pistil is constructed of one to many rolled leaflike structures.
Stigma
This is the part of the pistil which receives the pollen grains and on which they germinate.  Style
This is the long stalk that the stigma sits on top of ovary.  Ovary
The part of the plant that contains the ovules.  Ovule
The part of the ovary that becomes the seeds.   Petal  The colorful, often bright part of the flower (corolla).  Sepal  The parts that look like little green leaves that cover the outside of a flower bud (calix).  (Undifferentiated "Perianth segment" that are not clearly differentiated into sepals and petals, take the names of tepals.)"

The following details come from Nectary Genomics:-

"NECTAR. Many flowering plants attract potential pollinators by offering a reward of floral nectar. The primary solutes found in most nectars are varying ratios of sucrose, glucose and fructose, which can range from as little a 8% (w/w) in some species to as high as 80% in others. This abundance of simple sugars has resulted in the general perception that nectar consists of little more than sugar-water; however, numerous studies indicate that it is actually a complex mixture of components. Additional compounds found in a variety of nectars include other sugars, all 20 standard amino acids, phenolics, alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenes, vitamins, organic acids, oils, free fatty acids, metal ions and proteins.

NECTARIES. An organ known as the floral nectary is responsible for producing the complex mixture of compounds found in nectar. Nectaries can occur in different areas of flowers, and often take on diverse forms in different species, even to the point of being used for taxonomic purposes. Nectaries undergo remarkable morphological and metabolic changes during the course of floral development. For example, it is known that pre-secretory nectaries in a number of species accumulate large amounts of starch, which is followed by a rapid degradation of amyloplast granules just prior to anthesis and nectar secretion. These sugars presumably serve as a source of nectar carbohydrate.

WHY STUDY NECTAR? Nearly one-third of all worldwide crops are dependent on animals to achieve efficient pollination. In addition, U.S. pollinator-dependent crops have been estimated to have an annual value of up to $15 billion. Many crop species are largely self-incompatible (not self-fertile) and almost entirely on animal pollinators to achieve full fecundity; poor pollinator visitation has been reported to reduce yields of certain species by up to 50%."

The following details about DOUBLE FLOWERS comes from Wikipedia:-

"Double-flowered" describes varieties of flowers with extra petals, often containing flowers within flowers. The double-flowered trait is often noted alongside the scientific name with the abbreviation fl. pl. (flore pleno, a Latin ablative form meaning "with full flower"). The first abnormality to be documented in flowers, double flowers are popular varieties of many commercial flower types, including roses, camellias and carnations. In some double-flowered varieties all of the reproductive organs are converted to petals — as a result, they are sexually sterile and must be propagated through cuttings. Many double-flowered plants have little wildlife value as access to the nectaries is typically blocked by the mutation.

There is further photographic, diagramatic and text about Double Flowers from an education department - dept.ca.uky.edu - in the University of Kentucky in America.

"Meet the plant hunter obsessed with double-flowering blooms" - an article from The Telegraph.
