Lee's 'review'.

A very colourful book,quite similar to Richard Iversen's 'The Exotic Garden',except it's British.Ideal for the novice into exotic gardening,but doesn't really give any advanced info for established exoctists.I don't agree with what Will says about certain plants and their requirments,like eg.Cordyline australis needs to be brought indoors in winter for protection.It's a hardy plant in most of the UK(95%).I wish he would tell us more about growing cold hardy cacti and succulents outdoors all year round as he lives in a 'semi-arid' region of Britain.
