Horticulturist's Rule-Book - A Compendium of Useful Information for Fruit-Growers, Truck-Gardeners, Florists and Others - Completed to Close the Year 1889

The Horticulturist's Rule-Book is an incredibly comprehensive compendium of information on the subject of horticulture. A useful reference for many occupations, this book was originally written with Fruit-Growers, Truck-Gardeners, and Florists in mind, containing a wide range of information and comprising chapters such as: Weeds; Waxes for Grafting and for Wounds; Cements, Mortars, Paints and Glues; Postal Rates and Regulations; Rules; Collecting and Preserving, etc. From a veritable dictionary of pesticides to step-by-step guides, this book constitutes the definitive horticulturalists guide not to be missed by enthusiasts and practitioners. We are proud to republish this scarce text with a new introductory biography of the author.
