Firm soft cover.
Finding herself in sole charge of the National Collection of Aucuba japonica following the death of her knowledgeable plantsman husband, Linda Eggins became drawn into researching the species and realised that the cultivar names were confused. In her attempt to sort out the nomenclature she also discovered a fascinating story behind this often derided shrub.

    I rarely write reviews but I must recommend this excellent nursery. It is the best nursery I have used for online ordering. Rang them first with some questions and they were most helpful. Then did my order of heathers and they were sent and arrived promptly in great condition and are very healthy looking plants.
