Faye Brawner's guide to geraniums(pelargoniums),
By
This review is from: Geraniums: The Complete Encyclopedia (Paperback)
I have been collecting pelargoniums for 20 years. Mrs. Brawner's book is the best available guide ever to the cultivars and how to grow them. The color pictures are abundant and of excellent quality. Please note that this book uses the common American name 'geranium' for the plants that are known to science as pelargoniums. If you want to grow perennial, cold-hardy geraniums you will need a different book.
