This book deals with the cultivation of the sunflower as a crop, and, 'Its economic value, world expansion and cultivation with particular application to Great Britain'. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
