About the Author

He is the author of numerous scientific papers and contributions to flora, and holds an RHS Gold Veitch Memorial Medal.
Reviews
Cullen writes that the aim of this book is to provide an accurate means of identification for those species of the genus Rhododendron that are cultivated in Britain, western Europe, and parts of North America. He points out that this is not a manual for the identification of the more than 30,000 hybrids and cultivars. Cullen does identify 295 species listed in systematic order so that similar species occur close to each other in the text. Each entry includes a description of its leaves, buds, and stamens, and the time of year the plant produces flowers. The book, written in association with the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, has 176 color photographs, an introduction to classification and identification, and a bibliography. Gardeners who delight in these comely flowers will find the book most informative. George Cohen
