Coloured numbers in bold before the page number(s) denote the part number (month). Each part is paginated separately.

Numbers in italics denote a picture or illustration.

Where a plant has a Selling name (also known as a trade designation) it is typeset in a different font to distinguish it from the cultivar name (shown in ‘Single Quotes’), which by law must be shown on plant labelling.
