The title, Creative Propagation, is published by Timber
Press
and was written by Peter Thompson (no relation) formerly of
the Royal Botanic Gardens , Kew. It is certainly a valuable resource, but
another worthy title is Propagation Handbook by Geoff Bryant
published by Stackpole Books in 1995. Easy to use charts on the best propagation
technique for various genera makes it the first book I consult, after Dirr's
Manual of Woody Landscape Plants: always my first choice. Propagation is
the natural progression for any gardener interested in more than the
arrangement of plants in the landscape. Sharing propagation successes with
fellow gardeners is the ultimate gardening experience, surpassed only by
teaching others how to do it!
