Hydrangeas Garden Book Naomi Slade

Perhaps the most abundantly blooming plant, hydrangeas, has captivated gardeners and cultivators alike with their old-fashioned charm and irresistible colors. From late spring to early autumn, they burst from the ends of stems in natural bouquets of vibrant pink, stunning white, lavender, rose, and blue. With over 75 species and 600 named cultivars that range worldwide, the variety makes them perfect for any occasion. It is a beautiful garden book for reference and a coffee table book.

Georgianna Lane’s entrancing photography showcases nature’s firework flower varieties, such as the intensely colored Alpenglühen and the airy Lanarth White. At the same time, Naomi Slade imparts her gardening expertise for the fullest bloom of this rewarding flower. Readers will discover the vast array that hydrangeas have to offer and why these bountiful blossoms are becoming increasingly popular as houseplants and gifts.
