Description

Ferns have graced our planet for hundreds of millions of years.

With about 12,000 named species of ferns worldwide, the variety to be found among them is staggering in its array of forms, textures, and even colors.

From towering tree ferns to tiny water clovers, ferns and fern allies offer a wide range of uses in the garden and home.

This book offers useful advice on ferns and fern allies for any region, with details on cultivation, identification, landscaping, and more.

The bulk of the book consists of an encyclopedic treatment of all the ferns in cultivation in the U.S.

Some 700 species from 124 genera are described in detail, including physical descriptions, cultural requirements, hardiness, common names, synonyms, special uses, geographical range, and notable cultivars or related species.

Each species is accompanied by a black-and-white illustration to allow for easy identification and to provide a useful means of comparing species.

This book is only available through print on demand.

All interior art is black and white.
