Gardener's favourites, hydrangeas are easily grown and propagated, highly decorative and long-lasting. With a season that runs from mid-summer to autumn, these beautiful plants offer enormous potential for gardens great and small. This new edition includes: fresh images, fully revised chapters on the genus, hydrangeas in the gardens, cultivation and propagation. Also, the final extensive chapter includes full details of 20 new cultivars and sub-species, bringing the total to over 95. Each of the full descriptions are illustrated by stunning photographs of the cultivar/sub-species, leaf silhouettes, and line drawings. The chapter 'Genus Hydrangea' includes more on Japanese cultivars and less hardy cultivars; the Cultivation chapter covers details of growing from seed, extends the information on well dressing, and includes more on diseases. The new cultivars to be covered include: 6 stunning Teller lace caps from Switzerland; plus H. serrata 'Tiara'; the American cultivar 'Oregon Pride'; 7 hardy Japanese cultivars; the Dutch cultivar 'All summer Beauty' and the French 'Ave Maria'.

Review:
Valuable. -- Verlyn Klinkenborg "New York Times" (06/06/2004)

First-rate ... definitive and irresistible tribute to one of America's favorite shrubs.

The book is full of great photographs and discusses propagation, hydrangeas as potted plants, drying the flowers, and lists a full description of the cultivars and species. -- Linda Cobb "Spartanburg Herald-Journal" (03/15/2005)

The photographs in superb color of species and cultivars are well-taken, and make it easier to understand the difference, often subtle, of the multitude of cultivars available. -- John E. Bryan "Gardening Newsletter" (03/09/2005)
