Comprehensive Review,
By
This review is from: Delphiniums (Hardcover)
This is a comprehensive survey of the cultivation of delphiniums. It starts with a general introductory section and then there is some background describing where delphiniums can be found in the wild, which is mainly in the Northern Hemisphere apart from a few found in the mountain ranges of Africa. Also it reviews diversity within delphiniums including diversity in leaves, flowers etc. There is an extensive section which considers which delphiniums can be found in each colour. This came as something of a surprise to me as I am used to seeing the plants in various shades of blue, mauve and white. However, there are some outstanding specimens in reds, pinks and yellows. The second half of the book deals with their cultivation, growing them in flowerbeds, containers etc, propagation, pests and diseases etc. So to summarise, this is a reasonably competent and thorough review of delphiniums and there will be something of interest even for the expert I imagine. |
