Rhs Genealogy for Gardeners by Simon Maughan (Hardcover)

"Gardening experts Simon Maughan and Ross Bayton are here to guide you through plant genealogy, to help you understand more than a quarter of a million species. Using this knowledge, we can begin to see similarities and characteristics between plants, and make sense of the huge biological diversity of the plant kingdom. The book is divided into three sections - Non- Flowering Plants, Dicots, and Monocots - to provide detailed information on 100 of the 'core' plant families while 'Uses for' boxes provide practical gardening tips. With beautiful botanical watercolours and practical diagrams, this is the perfect book for gardeners, horticultural students, budding naturalists and amateur botanists."--Publisher description
