About This Item

Newton Abbot: David & Charles, 1988. 192 pp, large 8vo (9 1/2" H). Colour and b&w photographs, b&w drawings. "Michael Jefferson-Brown steers us skilfully through the multitude of lily types, from wild species to the latest hybrids, giving full descriptions and easy reference codes for their main characteristics. There is detailed botanical information, but the emphasis throughout is on the practical concerns of growing and deploying lilies in various garden situations. Very full instructions are given for propagating your own bulbs, and even breeding your own hybrids. The newcomer will find comprehensive information, and there are plenty of tips for the flower arranger. For the long-time fancier, there are suggested cultural methods for the more 'challenging' lilies, up to exhibition standard. Essential reading for all lily fans, this book is an investment in the glorious summer garden!" Tiny bump at bottom of rear hinge. Dust jacket has slight browning on spine and at top edge of rear panel, minor edgewear, one tiny edge tear, minor rubbing.. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good+.
