内容説明・目次
内容説明
"The Jade Garden" is an authoritative guide to 130 of the most fascinating yet little-known ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennials from 'the green mantle' of Asia. Based on detailed research and observation at one of the largest and oldest collections of Asian plants in North America, the subjects of this book were chosen for their superior garden qualities, their rarity in everyday horticulture, and their commercial availability. From an extraordinary, nearly black geranium with reflexed petals, to a ground-creeping honeysuckle with bicolored flowers and blue berries, gardeners are sure to find something new and exciting in these pages. Although plants included are from the 'cutting edge' of plant exploration and discovery, the authors have included only those selections that have undergone thorough evaluation at the University of British Columbia Botanical Garden for hardiness and garden appeal. In addition, the authors have taken special care to exclude potentially invasive plants, allowing readers to be confident that any selection from the book will be an environmentally responsible one.
With many of its plants appearing in a garden book for the first time, "The Jade Garden" is certain to be a groundbreaking horticultural event.
