The Louisiana Iris: The Taming of a Native American Wildflower, Second Edition
This is a revised edition of the first complete reference published on Louisiana irises, the five species of Iris in section Hexagonae. These beardless irises are endemic to the United States, with their center of distribution in Louisiana. They first drew attention because of the enormous number of their natural hybrids; this propensity for hybridization led to the development of today’s spectacular range of colors and forms.
This authoritative treatment by The Society for Louisiana Irises is based on the first edition published by the Society in 1988, but it is considerably expanded. It covers every aspect of the history, botany, and development of these distinctive irises, with particular emphasis on the newest hybrids, hybridizing techniques, and cultural practices, and also includes suggestions for their use in the landscape and in floral arrangements. It should serve to introduce a wider gardening public to these most colorful and versatile flowers.
Hardcover: 211 pages (116 color images) book dimensions: 10.3 x 7.4 inches * Publisher: Timber Press 2nd edition ISBN: 0881924776
Price: $30.00 includes shipping in USA. Canada and International – please contact Storefront for price.
