A great book !!

If your interested in the fine details of botanical taxonamy and identifying / cultivating Euphorbia then this is a must for your collection. Euphorbia is a difficult genus to work with and the information in this work makes life a lot easier when keying out plant materials. Contains detailed drawings of seeds and fruits and color photo's of various plants. This work is relatively small but authoratative , detailed and has a permanent spot in my botanical library. A great dollar value. Note : covers Euphorbia under cultivation so may not cover most natives in your area but will give a good intro of Euphorbia terminology that will help in identification of any member of Euphorbia. There are not that many good works on Euphorbia currently in print so when you see one , " BUY IT " , this is one of a few ! Pages 188 , 47 color photo's , bibliography , bw drawings, index.
