About this ebook
This volume contains a comprehensive guide to ferns, palms, and cycads, and includes information on variations, descriptions, popularity, and other information of note. This text will be of considerable utility to gardeners and amateur botanists with an interest in these types of plants, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. The chapters of this book include: 'Ferns', 'Stove and Greenhouse Ferns', 'Hardy Ferns', 'Selaginellas', 'Lycopodiums', 'Palms', 'Insect Pests', 'List of Palms', 'Cycads', etcetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned biography of William Watson.
