Description
|
|
|
|
For botanical gardeners, commercial planters, or home gardeners, this beautifully illustrated book provides a thoroughly researched guide to peak bloom times for more than 450 perennial flowers, in locations around the world. Organized alphabetically by flower and including detailed charts and graphs, this book presents a system to predict the groupings of flowers that will reliably bloom at the same time, from Missouri to Moscow. Introductory chapters explain the seasonal development of various perennial plants, the response of plants to weather conditions, and basic concepts of phenology—the timing of natural phenomena. "Tomasz Anisko has written a book that is destined to become a perennial itself, for it unlocks in a practical way one of the hardest aspects of garden design: figuring out which perennials bloom when, exactly."—Washington Post
