Shopping News: RHS 1994 diary

CARDIFF coal millionaire Reginald Cory had a passion for plants. He lavished a fortune on pictures and books about them and, luckily for the nation's garden- lovers, bequeathed his collection of 17th and 18th-century flower drawings to the Royal Horticultural Society. A previously unpublished selection of these beautiful and detailed botanical illustrations are now reproduced in the RHS 1994 diary. The diaries are available from all good bookshops or from the RHS Enterprises shop at Wisley Gardens, Woking, Surrey GU23 6QB - or telephone 0483 211113 with your order. It is worth getting them soon because they sell out quickly.
