{"product_id":"poppies","title":"POPPIES","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Poppies, first published in 1993, was the first book devoted exclusively to these most loved and cherished of plants. Not only are the true poppies, genus Papaver, covered, but all the other members of the poppy family as well. This includes the horned poppies Glaucium, the tree poppies Dendromecon, the California poppies Eschscholzia, the desert poppies, Arctomecon, the prickly poppies Argemone, the pygmy poppies Canbya, the plumed poppies Macleaya, the blue poppies Meconopsis, the long-fruited poppies Roemeria, and many more.\" \"Grey-Wilson has concentrated primarily on species and forms in cultivation, together with those species of striking or particular interest that are not present in cultivation but fully deserve to be introduced. For this new edition, the author has included much new information about recent discoveries in the wild, as well as new species and cultivars introduced since Poppies was first published.\" \"There are general chapters on the family, cultivation and classification, and a key to genera. The individual genera, grouped into their respective subfamilies, are dealt with, including coverage of their more specialised cultivational requirements. All the important synonyms have been included to avoid confusion or ambiguity. Botanical authorities are given for all recognised species and synonyms.\" \"This work will be very welcome to committed gardeners and horticulturalists as a much-needed - and profusely illustrated - source of practical and botanical information.\"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
