Graham Rice

Graham Rice was born in Surrey in 1950 and now lives in Northamptonshire. After slipping into professional gardening almost by accident, he went on to study at Kew, where in the alpine and herbaceous department he sowed and looked after hundreds of pots of seed. Later he took to writing and was technical editor of Practical Gardening magazine for some years and is currently gardening correspondent for the Evening Standard. He is a member of the Royal Horticultural Society's Floral Committee A, has written regularly for all the top gardening magazines and his books include A Handbook of Annuals and Bedding Plants (1986), Plants for Problem Places (1988), The Complete Small Garden (1992), The Gardeners' Guide to Hellebores (1993), The Planting Planner (1996) and The Gardeners' Guide to Perennials (1996). Garden Flowers from Seed, which he co-wrote with Christopher Lloyd, was published by Penguin in 1996.

Hardy Perennials was winner of the 1995 Garden Writers Guild Award for the best book on a single subject.
