About this book

"This volume shows both the habit and details - flower, fruit, bark, fall color - of more than 400 species and describes hundreds more cultivars and varieties. Certain genera offer myriad hybrids and selections, and photographs of many of the best of these are included as well - nearly 40 named crape-myrtles, a dozen teaolives, and 11 loropetalums. In all, more than 1400 photographs join with the authoritative text to bring the plants to life."--BOOK JACKET.
