Beschreibung
The Large Book of the Camellias Andreas Bärtels The dark, glossy foliage and the impressive flowers of the camellia, almost rigid in their appearance, appear in the garden at a time when our desire for fresh colours is almost irrepressible. The secret of the camellias cool charm is that its porcelain-like flowers are quite distinct from the lively colours of spring that typically adorn our gardens. Indeed, it is this unassuming manner that let the camellia take centre stage. With the help of this book, you can find out all you need to know about camellias. It will answer any questions you may have on the most important camellia species, cultivars and hybrids in the garden and winter garden.
