An Encyclopedia of Cultivated Palms by Robert Lee Riffle, Paul Craft Hardcover - 528 pages 890 species!
929 colour photos! Our Rating: Suitable for: all A definitive account of palms that may be grown in the garden and landscape. Because palms are often underutilized as a result of their unfamiliarity -- even to tropical gardeners -- Robert Lee Riffle and Paul Craft have exhaustively documented every genus in the palm family. Approximately 890 species are described in detail, including cold hardiness, water needs, height, and any special requirements. No gardener or landscaper who reads this book should ever again lose a palm solely because of lack of horticultural information.
