Excerpt from The Subtropical Garden: Or Beauty of Form in the Flower Garden This book is written with a view to assist the newly awakened taste for something more than mere colour in the flower-garden, by enumerating, describing, indicating the best positions for, and giving the culture of, all our materials for what is called subtropical gardening. This not very happy, not very descriptive name, is adopted from its popularity only; fortunately for our gardens numbers of subjects not from subtropical climes may be employed with great advantage.
