This color-illustrated book for gardeners, general readers, and horticulture researchers describes the many types of garden daffodils and how they were used in American gardens over the course
of 200 years. The book draws on primary sources such as nursery catalogs and seed lists, as well as research in botany and modern taxonomies. Historic gardens on the east side of the country
are profiled. The book includes a wealth of color and black and white contemporary and historical photos and illustrations; many of the illustrations are from historic books and catalogs, as
well as gardens and daffodil varieties. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
