The Botanical Garden. Two Volumes.
Roger Phillips & Martyn Rix.
”A photographic record of the genera of trees and shrubs of interest to gardeners.” This very comprehensive work covers over 1,000 genera and bridges the gap between scientific texts and horticultural ones. It provides insight into the relationships between garden plants and the natural environment from which they come. All the genera are lavishly illustrated with exquisitely detailed photographs. Volume one deals with trees, shrubs and climbers, volume two with the herbaceous plants. A substantial work from the well known Phillips and Rix partnership. A very large and heavy pair of books.
