Rhododendrons are one of the most versatile of garden plants - large and evergreen, with glorious flowers and wonderful foliage. The big-leaf rhododendrons - species Falconera and Grandia - take these attributes to a whole new level. All species of big-leaf rhododendrons known to date are covered in this book. International expert on the genus Graham Smith and garden writer Glyn Church, both New Zealand based, give practical advice on growing them in your garden, including how to create the very best conditions in which to enjoy these spectacular plants. All species of big-leaf rhododendrons known to date are covered. Plus there are chapters on the introduction of rhododendrons from their native habitats in Asia, public and private gardens with the best collections, and what new species are still being discovered. Over 200 colour photographs from NZ photographer Pat Greenfield.
