Plants are the backbone of every garden - and provide colour, joy and excitement. The RHS has a wealth of information on plants for all situations and how to grow them to perfection.
Plant trials & awards
With so many plants available to gardeners it is useful to know about the best ones to grow. The RHS carries out extensive trials on a wide range of plants and the best are awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM).

Collecting and recording plants
National Plant Collections - run by the National Council for the Conservation of Plants & Gardens (NCCPG) - are concerned with the preservation of plant diversity in gardens.

Registration of cultivar names ensures that a name is applied to only one new plant within a related group. The RHS is registrar for nine plant groups.
