Beder man folk om at nævne deres yndlingsblomst er der rigtig mange - især kvinder - der nævner pæoner. Det er en blomst, som taler til vores inderste følelser. Men hvad er det, der gør pæoner så populære? Claus Dalby giver svaret. Først og fremmest er det blomstens romantiske og nostalgiske udseende, dernæst duften og sidst, men ikke mindst flygtigheden. Det er jo sådan, at den enkelte blomst sjældent holder mere end en uges tid. Derefter falder kronbladene. Ud over bonderoser omtaler bogen også særlige pæonarter, silkepæoner, træpæoner og de såkaldte sektionshybrider.

Efterårets store havebog fra Claus Dalby handler om ´den hvide have´- et begreb, som Vita Sackville-West fra Sissinghurst i det sydlige England gjorde kendt, da hun i 1950 slog dørene op til The White Garden. Siden er folk blevet inspireret til at lave sit eget hvide haverum. Det gælder også Claus Dalby, der her introducerer begrebet på dansk og fortæller om en mængde af de hvide blomster, der findes.

I mange år har der været brug for en ny planteskolebog, som behandler erhvervets faglige problemstillinger samlet. Planteskolebogen behandler mange af de emner, der er relevante i forbindelse med formering og dyrkning af træer, buske og stauder.Bogen er delt i to dele: del I, hvor stoffet gennemgås emneorienteret, og del II med eksempler på, hvordan forskellige typer af planteskoleplanter kan dyrkes i praksis.I bogen kan man læse om planternes fysiologi, om mange forskellige formeringsmetoder, om container- og markkultur og om vanding og ernæring. Man kan hente viden om udvælgelse og introduktion af nye planter og den relevante lovgivning i den forbindelse. Sygdomme og skadedyr har deres eget kapitel.Miljøaspektet er søgt integreret i de forskellige emner - ofte med alternative løsningsforslag til den almindelige praksis. Desuden er der et kapitel, som specielt fokuserer på forskellige miljøaspekter og kommer med praktiske anvisninger.For at dække en nødvendig bredde og sikre ajourført viden på området, har mange forfattere medvirket til at skrive bogen.Planteskolebogen er primært tænkt som en lærebog til undervisning inden for erhvervsmæssigt havebrug, men henvender sig også til planteskolefolk generelt og til alle med særlig interesse for have og landskab og for dyrkning af planter.
