We use them to adorn our home, to establish a mood, to give as gifts, and to create a garden of beauty and color. By choosing plants carefully, the gardener can produce a wonderful outdoor area that will continue to provide a delightful floral display throughout the seasons. The Complete Encyclopedia of Garden Flowers features the most beautiful blooms from around the world, including annuals and perennials, trees, orchids, shrubs, ground covers, bromeliads, and bulbs. As well as popular plants such as roses, rhododendrons, and camellias, there are the less well known but no less striking trumpet-shaped flowers of Brugmansia, the charming heart-shaped blooms of Dicentra, and the dazzlingly colorful flower spikes of Lupinus. The book begins with a fascinating introduction to growing flowers, choosing the right plant for your region, and caring for your garden. There are also informative articles on the different groups of flowering plants. Following this section is an A to Z of flowers, from abutilon to zinnia. For each genus there is a general introduction plus cultivation information and a helpful hint. There is also an at-a-glance table that reveals the favorite species and groups, describing their size, flower color, flowering season, fragrance, hardiness zone, and frost tolerance. Delightful full-color photographs are accompanied by detailed captions. This stunning book also features an easy-to-use seasonal calendar, a glossary, and a fully cross-referenced index. With its accessible style, mix of practical and factual information, comprehensive descriptions, and gorgeous color photographs, The Complete Encyclopedia of Garden Flowers is a must for every gardener, and for all who love the unique beauty and romance of flowers. The Complete Encyclopedia of Garden Flowers features popular flowering plants from all over the world. Some have been photographed in gardens, while others are shown in their natural habitat. The full-color shots make it easy for gardeners to picture the plants in their own garden. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: Let the experts at the Royal Botanic Gardens guide you around the beautiful and mysterious world that is the plant kingdom. From regulating the air we breathe to providing food, clothes, fuels, and medicines - plants are fundamental to our lives. Discover an extraordinary diversity of species, which includes a grass that grows a meter a day, roots that breathe air, and "queen of the night" cactuses whose rare blooms vanish before dawn. In a combination of art and science, Flora celebrates plants from majestic trees to microscopic algae, explaining how they germinate, grow, and reproduce. It presents species that have evolved to accommodate pollinating insects such as the foxglove, and plants that have adapted to flourish in even the most hostile of habitats. Pierre-Joseph Redoute in the 18th-century was described as the "Raphael of flowers". Flora showcases his botanical paintings as well as those of Georg Ehret and others in this gorgeous visual celebration of plants through the ages. Whether you are a keen gardener, naturalist, or botany student, this beautiful book is a treat that will entice, inform, and amaze.

Each word is listed with a pronunciation guide, definition, example plant, and, where appropriate, etymology. Also included in this illuminating guide are special features on important plant genera, fact boxes, essays focusing on the history and importance of Latin names and botanical illustrations, and an index of common names with more than 2,000 popular plants, cross-referenced with their binomial name in Latin.
