Nice book for daylily lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Fabulous pictures and a beautiful book for the daylily connoisseur. As previous reviews indicate, there is no mention of Stamile's Candy series, but the pictures of the covered cultivars make this well worth owning.
Nice pictures......but
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The pictures alone in this book make it an essential purchase for the daylily fancier. I would have given it five stars except there was no mention of Stamile's Candies, which have won the last two Stout Silver Medals. Also, I found the author tended to mention only good points of a plant and not bad ones such as poor bud counts. People buying this book want to know all about a plant so that they can make an informed judgement if they are considering buying the plant.
Magnificent miniatures

The second book from Graeme Grosvenor on daylilies. A very good book on daylilies; what makes this one is the photography. I think I have read all the books ever written on the daylily, but I have never come across such beautiful photographs,especially of the miniature cultivars which are usually somewhat neglected. What is more the daylilies depicted are instantly recognisable as the flowers that grow in my garden. This book is thorough in content and will do much to get more people hooked on this beautiful and utterly enchanting perennial.
Beautiful photographs, comprehensive discussion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This text was both an easy read and comprehensive coverage of daylily culture and care, with an extensive collection of recommended cultivars. The author's coverage is from an Australian gardener's perspective, but he also comments on suitability for colder climates like American zone 4 and 5. After reading it I keep it handy just to review the photos and get me through the winter months.
Outstanding photos and descriptions!
