Gardening: flowers

The only book devoted to the five amazing classes of shorter bearded irises, which are perennially in high demand.

Dwarf and median bearded irises are the little floral jewels of the gardening world, extending the iris season by six to eight weeks with great panache. Relatively new on the horticultural scene, these small and miniature replicas of larger bearded irises have nevertheless taken it by storm, because their 4-to-27-inch height makes them the perfect size for most gardens. Dr. Kevin Vaughn, who has hybridised these irises over a 50-year period in diverse climates, describes all five dwarf and median bearded-iris classes. He offers suggestions both for historical and modern cultivars, describes best cultivation practices, and details hybridising methods. Lavishly illustrated with nearly 200 colour photos of outstanding specimens, this comprehensive book is both for beginners who want to try some of the hottest perennials on the market, and for seasoned iris growers who want to learn more about their favourite plant.

AUTHOR: Dr. Kevin Vaughn lives in Salem Oregon, the global center for bearded-iris production, and has won numerous awards for his hybrids During his 30 years at the USDA he published nearly 200 articles on plant anatomy and genetics.
