Part 4

Welcome. In this issue of The Plantsman we look at one of the great treasures of the RHS Lindley Library - the Reeves botanical paintings. We also hear about some unusual wild flowers included in new book Wild Flowers of Wisley, as well as advances in Helleborus and Hepatica. Elsewhere new Arum italicum cultivars from sports and seedlings are discussed. See the contents list below and enjoy some of the free articles.
