Product Description

Product Description
Fascination with bamboos has led many gardeners to buy them but ignorance of their requirements has often brought frustration and despair. This book aims to correct that situation and offers a major source of detailed reference and inspirational colour pictures.

From the Publisher
A complete illustrated reference to bamboos
This book provides all the information gardeners need to successfully plant and grow bamboos, as well as an encyclopedia of species particularly suited for the garden, including dwarf, frost-resistant, and non-invasive varieties. Other fascinating topics are also covered, including bamboo's cultural influence in Asia, morphology, species characteristics, cultivars, and uses of the plant and its products, including a handful of recipes. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bamboo's, 24 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Bamboos (Hardcover)
Still one of the most visual works on bamboo, originally translated from a German book, "Bamboo"s, by Christine Recht & Max F. Wetterwald, is wonderfully filled with color pictures of many bamboo species, and the black and white drawings are very clear, especially in explaining the paticulars of both running, and non invasive varieties. The individual description's are compact, yet informative, leaving room for a large volume of cultivars, with a general introduction to each type first. I counted more than 85 species, 34 of which are the popular Phyllostachys. The book is of good manufacture, and my hardback is still in great shape.
