Garden Plants for Scotland
A must-have guide for Scottish gardeners, this beautifully illustrated book brings together expert knowledge and practical advice on plants that truly thrive in Scotland’s unique conditions.
With its mild maritime climate, reliable rainfall and relatively few extremes, Scotland offers excellent growing conditions for a wide range of plants. However, regional variations – from exposed, windswept highlands to the milder west coast – make thoughtful plant selection essential.
Drawing on extensive research and real-world experience, Kenneth Cox and Raoul Curtis-Machin have assessed thousands of plants across Scotland. The result is a carefully curated guide to the most reliable shrubs, trees, conifers, fruit and perennials, supported by over 800 photographs.
Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, this book provides clear, trustworthy guidance to help you choose the right plants for your space.
