Review
"Tebbitt ... makes a welcome addition to the horticultural literature with this work, particularly because it concentrates on species rather than hybrids, and description rather than cultivation. ... Over 200 color photos and numerous high-quality line drawings add to the appeal and utility of this work."--G. D. Dreyer, Choice, February 2006 -- G. D. Dreyer "Choice"
