Narrow-leaved volkameria, Cliffordian ginger, and a broad-leaved pancratium open the ninth volume of Andrews's repository. Each exotic species is captured in a fine hand-colored plate for the grower and the collector. Another rich chapter in a long feast of botanical art. Meet more of the rare plants that once crossed oceans to bloom in England.

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.
