In this book there are 1,200 species of bulbous plants alphabetically arranged; almost half of them illustrated (almost three quarters of these bulbs are found nowhere else on earth). By no means fully comprehensive, this book is probably the most complete illustrated handbook on South African bulbs to date. This book is an essential aid to the identification of all species presently in cultivation as well as the many others that are potentially valuable horticultural subjects. 588 color photos, 2 color maps, 2 tables. 486 pages. 8-3/4” x 11-1/4”, hardbound with color dustjacket ………(#92110)……$59.95
