Cacti and Succulents

About this book

"The Plantfinder's Guide to Cacti & Other Succulents takes an in-depth, authoritative view of the genera that make up this group. The main characteristics of each of the 21 families covered in the book are described in a botanical introduction. A detailed chapter on cultivation puts forward the commonsense principle that an understanding of the conditions that nature provides for the plants, and successful replication of them, will ensure that your plants not only survive but also flourish so well that they flower. The detailed plant descriptions within the A-Z of Cacti & Other Succulents are comprehensive and include the origins of each plant, growing requirements, propagation tips and conservation concerns."--Jacket.
