A Manual for Beginners

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This little book on gardening has been published by us for many years, and appears to gain in popularity as time goes on. In response to many requests from the public that more space should be devoted to the cultivation of lawns and roses, we obtained, from the talented pen of Mr. H. J. Davis of Lucknow, two special chapters on these popular subjects, which we feel have greatly added to the usefulness of the book. The present Edition has been edited and brought up-to-date by Dr. Burns, Economic Botanist to the Government of Bombay. We would like to pay a tribute to the manner in which this gentleman has carried out the work of revision, Without in any way interfering with the popular character of the book, which is one of its features, he has added greatly to the store of information contained in its pages.
