HC Deb 16 July 1906 vol 160 c1312
MR. CHIOZZA MONEY

To ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, if his attention has been directed to the fact that the only guides to be obtained at the Royal Botanical Gardens are detailed sectional official productions and an inadequate non-official production; and whether he will give instructions for an official guide to be prepared for sale at say 3d. or 6d., which will describe and illustrate the contents of the gardens in broad outlines and in simple but accurate terms.

(Answered by Sir Edward Strachey.) The preparation of an official guide to Kew Gardens has kindly been undertaken by Sir William Thistleton-Dyer, the late director, and it will be completed and placed on sale at the earliest possible date.
