The exquisitely delicate watercolour paintings capture the fragile elegance of almost all the Gladiolus species in the region. The detailed entries for each of the 163 species include a comprehensive description of the plant, its synonyms, geographic range and biology, its evolutionary relationships and its taxonomic history. A major botanical reference for an important and very beautiful genus.” 319 Pages. Contents clean and tightly bound. 1st Edition. Condition: Near fine. Dust jacket: Very good. Some light edge-wear to top edge and light foxing to the verso. Binding: Hardcover. Olive green boards with minor edge-wear.
