Description
|
|
|
|
From a handful of wild species belonging to the genus Hemerocallis, daylily breeders have produced tens of thousands of hybrids in a dazzling array of colors, patterns, and shapes, the most beautiful and exciting of which are presented in this pictorial guide. Ted Petit and John Peat, both leading members of the American Hemerocallis Society, present more than 1700 daylilies in color photos and detailed descriptions—1400 of them new to this edition. Their encyclopedia also includes chapters on daylily physiology, the history of the genus, the history of daylily hybridizing, hybridization techniques, and cultivation. "An authoritative reference for anyone who wishes to explore the wide world of daylilies."—Michigan Gardener "The book isn't just a bunch of pretty pictures.... The instructions on how to make your own daylily hybrid sound so easy that I am planning on trying it next summer."—Creators Syndicate
