A Visual Feast for the Cactophile

This is a terrific book devoted entirely to Cacti (no succulents are shown. The photographs are superb and many of them show plants in their natural habitat. Each plant description gives brief cultural requirements for the plant shown and these are qite adequate but this is not really what this book is all about. The book is a visual feast of photographs, many of the plants quite rare in cultivation. The book also uses what may be a unique form of layout, rather than the plants being shown in alphabetical order, they are classified according to their geographical origin. There is also a place in the book for hybrids and specialist varieties. next to each plant photograph throughout the book there are symbols for light requirement and overwintering.
