Literature: Gardeners’ Choice, by Evelyn Dunbar and Charles Mahoney, with a previously unpublished preface by Edward Bawden and with a new afterword by Christopher Campbell-Howes, Persephone Books, London 2015. Dunbar’s (or Mahoney’s) impressive drawing of what they describe as in our judgement one of the loveliest plants that blow’ appears – complete with snail lower left – on page 153 of Gardeners’ Choice.
We are grateful to Christopher Campbell-Howes for assistance.
