Iris (Affordable Series of Books for Gardeners)
Harry Haralambou,Theodore James
Named for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, the iris has been called the "poor man's orchid, " because it is exotic yet low-maintenance, inexpensive, and can be grown in the backyard. The seductive beauty of this flamboyant perennial has made the iris second in popularity in the U.S. and Great Britain only to the rose. This lavishly illustrated guide tells beginning and experienced gardeners all they need to know to cultivate many different varieties--but focuses mainly on the myriad of Bearded, Beardless, and Bulbous irises (including rebloomers) that are favorites of flower lovers everywhere.
