Growing Rhododendrons

The genus Rhododendron commands a very special respect in the world of horticulture. Among its diverse forms are plants that are suitable for most climates, from the topics to the cold winters of northern Europe and America.

Prior to this work, information on rhododendrons was restricted to either compact - but superficial - handbooks which listed only a small selection of plants, or lavish, expensive texts which exceeded the needs or budget of the average grower. This book provides, in one comprehensive volume, the rhododendron in nature, the fascinating story of its cultivation, and how it can be best used in landscaping, along with detailed advice on its cultivation, protection and propagation.
