Brilliantly colourful and luxuriant, subtropical and tropical-style gardens are highly popular and becoming increasingly so. This practical book is a guide not only to the range of attractive subtropicals but also to selected tropical plants that can be grown in subtropical areas.
It includes trees and shrubs, palms and cyads, climbers, orchids, bulbs and perennials, cacti and succulents, bromeliads and a selection of fruit. Descriptions and cultivation information are given for each species.
The book is illustrated throughout with 200 colour photographs, making it an important addition to the gardener's reference library.
