This is a new edition of Bill Wall's original Wisley Handbook, Bromeliads, which has been fully revised and retitled to take account of the growing interest in air plants, as the xerophytic Tillandsia are called. Bromeliads are exotic, flowering plants for the greenhouse, conservatory and house, with a spectacular range of flowers and foliage. This book describes the most popular and provides all the information needed to cultivate and propagate them successfully. It describes selected species and hybrids in detail, with special attention to their horticultural requirements.
