An extensive monograph on the many species and cultivars of phlox among which Phlox paniculata is probably the most well known.


The new book is a greatly needed volume on gardening with phloxes. Very little has been written on the genus Phlox in recent times, and it is very hard to find any photos of the many cultivars of Phlox. This book contains more than 750 photos.

European plant breeders in particular are currently working on brand new phlox cultivars for our gardens.
