Abstract
THIS handsome volume was compiled for use in the United States and Canada by fourteen American experts in botany, horticulture, and allied subjects; but it will also be of service on the eastern side of the Atlantic, as nearly all the species dealt with can be seen in English parks and gardens. The great diversity of the British climate allows us to grow, in one part or another of these islands, an amazing number of exotic plants, imported from almost every region outside the tropics.
The Cultivated Evergreens: a Handbook of the Coniferous and most important Broad-leaved Evergreens planted for Ornament in the United States and Canada.
Edited by L. H. Bailey. Pp. xvii + 434 + 48 plates. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1923.) 31s. 6d. net.
