Excerpt from Flowers and Gardens in India: A Manual for Beginners IN preparing this fourth edition for the press, I Wish to thank those Whose enthusiastic reception of the preceding editions has led to the speedy necessity for a fourth.
Even in its present form - 'which has grown considerably since the first edition - it does not presume to be more than a manual for begin mm, but the importance of a good beginning lies in the fact of its being the best assurance of a successful ending, so once again I have great pleasure in encouraging everyone to begin to garden. After that, industry, taste and imagina tion will open to you the gates of an earthly paradise.
