He describes reasons to plant shrubs; choosing the right shrub, planting, and care; specific shrubs for challenging growing conditions, such shade, exposed and coastal situations, wet and compacted soil, alkaline and chalk soils, acid soils, hot and dry conditions, and harsh winters; specific shrubs for restricted planting spaces, particularly pots and containers, small gardens, narrow beds and borders, steep slopes and banks, and wall shrubs as alternatives to climbers; and shrubs with desirable characteristics, including architectural and dramatic foliage effects, fast movers, shrubs grown as trees, long-blooming shrubs, those with fragrant flowers, shrubs to attract wildlife, and deer and rabbit-resistant shrubs. Descriptions include the potential size and hardiness ratings for both the UK and US.
