Gary
I tried our library to see if they could get this book in, not a single copy in the county icon_scratch .
Its not even a new release, but it seems to be cheaper than it was about a month or so ago :wink:

Thanks Rob I've had a few books already, just wanted to read that particular one.
Unless you give them a title or author its very hit & miss.
At £18 it might be worth buying though...

Thank you for the suggestions. I've ordered Encyclopedia of Exotic Plants, thanks for that Gary, and Architectural Plants, thank you Libby. Christopher Lloyd's book I've added to my wish list (daren't speed any more the moment!), so thanks musa_monkey; I have most of Christopher Lloyd's books, he was a brilliant garden writer, so will be sure to get it eventually.
