RARE. One of the most lavish of nursery catalogues. This volume was dedicated to Gertrude Jekyll, and contains a short printed preface by her. [ James Kelway was born in 1815, and became a gardener like his father, William. At the age of 18 James was appointed as Head Gardener on the Dillington estate, near Ilminster, which was being revamped by its new owner, James Lee Lee. Over the next 17 years James learned not only how to manage a large garden, but also took advantage of the walled gardens and large greenhouses to develop his love of hybridising new varieties of plants. When he moved to Langport in 1851 he was already an experienced horticulturist. He started with a piece of land of less than two acres, but over the next fifty years he built up a nursery business with over 200 acres of its own, and many more leased from local farmers. He established Kelways with a world wide reputation for both vegetables and flowers. His first love was the gladiolus, but he also worked on other herbaceous plants such as delphiniums, pyrethrums, and of course peonies, which were to become Kelways' flagship product. His son William and grandson James continued his work into the 20th century, and although the business was hard hit by the two world wars, it has survived and thrived to this day. Kelways issued their most impressive catalogues, called Manuals of Horticulture, between the 1890s and the outbreak of the First World War. These were like modern-day gardening encyclopedias, full of horticultural advice, articles from gardening publications, photographs, and of course their seeds and plants for sale. They were lavishly illustrated, and took advantage of the emerging science of photography as much as they could.].
