NEW: Climbing Plants Ebook

ACS has just released a brand new ebook: Climbing Plants

Climbers are versatile plants that can serve the same purpose as shrubs, while using less space. They can be used to hide unsightly walls, fence off boundaries and provide shelter or shade growing over walls or roofs of structures, such as pergolas, arches and arbours.

This book is a fantastic guide to climbers complete with full colour photographs, ideal for everyone from the gardening enthusiast to landscape designers.
