Variegated Trees and Shrubs

"Written under the sponsorship of the Netherlands' prestigious Royal Boskoop Horticultural Society, this book describes in detail nearly 800 variegated trees, shrubs, and vines available internationally from nurseries. Author Ronald Houtman describes the origins of variegated plants, and offers complete horticultural information, including cold hardiness and cultural needs, on choices that gardeners should add to their wish lists. Painstaking in the accuracy of its nomenclature - variegated plants are notorious for being misnamed in commerce - this volume also includes a scientific discussion of the reasons for variegation as well as an essay on how to design with variegated plants in any garden." "More than 760 garden photographs have been assembled from the author's collection and from contributors around the world."--BOOK JACKET.
