Bury a brown bulb and wait for the miracle. John Weathers guides the gardener through beautiful bulbous plants for the open air: where they come from, how corms and bulbs work, the right soil, and how deep to plant. A practical path to a garden of lilies, tulips, and their kin. Plant now for a spring of color.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
