Quarto hardcover (VG+) in d/w (VG); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage costs.

Quarto; hardcover; red boards with white upper board and spine titles, red endpapers; 400pp., with many full-colour photographic illustrations. Minor wear only; near fine in a like slightly rubbed dustwrapper. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Some of the world's most romantic and exciting plants have come from the gardens and the nurseries of China - peonies, flowering peaches, camellias, gardenias, azaleas, wisteria, roses and crab-apples are just a few of China's plants which have had the greatest impact on gardens around the world. In this book, Peter Valder has drawn upon is extensive horticultural and botanical experience and time spent in China to bring together information about the history, occurrence and use of more than 400 plants. He looks at 2000 years of Chinese horticultural endeavour, and how ornamental plants have taken their place in Chinese art, literature, symbolism and everyday life.

Quarto; hardcover, with upper board titles; 400pp., with many full-colour illustrations. Mild wear; slightly rolled; softening to the spine extremities; some minor marks to the rear free endpaper; signed by the author in ink to the half-title page. Dustwrapper mildly rubbed; now professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Very good. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Valder gives us a window on a sophisticated garden aesthetic very different from Europe's, and an encyclopedia of more than 4000 Chinese garden plants. Combining vast research as well as information and photographs from his many trips to China, he presents a comprehensive volume on ornamental plants in the gardens of China. This splendid book is an important addition to the otherwise scanty and scattered literature in English on China's contribution to the garden splendour of the West and should be added to every library's horticultural section.
