A useful reading list, honestly chosen.

These are editorial selections based on the subject, author and published book information. They are not a bestseller ranking, and we do not claim to have tested or read every book cover to cover. Reading levels and suitability notes are our guidance to help you choose.

Some titles are older, and some describe growing in warmer climates. Pair them with current UK advice and the conditions in your own greenhouse. Each card links to the book information used. Book-cover photography is not shown in this edition of the library.
