Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewNikki is passionate about propagating plants. Her vast practical, academic and advisory experience is captured and distilled in this easy-to-read, essential guide for gardeners. -- Claire Lakey, RHS * Claire Lakey, Project Lead, RHS *
There are a lot of worthy resources available discussing plant propagation. This book, however, offers a fresh perspective, as rather than taking a general approach, the author narrows down the best technique and environment required for individual plant species to achieve commercial success in propagation. This wouldn’t be possible without Nikki Barker’s vast knowledge of ornamental/crop plants and skill in propagating them, as well as her experience teaching and training the next generation of horticulturists. Plant propagation and people with proper skill is becoming immensely important again and this book addresses this issue directly. -- Dr Kambiz Baghalian – Senior Lecturer in Crop Production and MSc Course Manager, Writtle University College * Senior Lecturer in Crop Production and MSc Course Manager, Writtle University College *
