Tropical Flowering Plants: A Guide to Identification and Cultivation

Description:

Bridges a long-standing gap between the scientific literature and the gardener's need for an accurate, practical guide with clear photographs. It incorporates the latest advances in plant taxonomy from the definitive text of Walter Judd. More than 1400 flowering trees, shrubs, vines and herbaceous plants commonly grown in tropical and subtropical gardens are documented. The author provides information on cultivation for each plant, including growth characteristics, light exposure, cold hardiness, invasive tendencies and unique horticultural features.
