Clematis by Robin Savill
In this beautiful and scholarly book, produced in celebration of the clematis, Monica McAllen's delicate watercolours are perfectly complemented by Robin Savill's entertaining and informative text about each specimen. Dr McAllen's wonderfully accurate botanical studies represent a four-year project undertaken with clematis expert Robin Savill, whose own collection of some 700 species and cultivars is among the most comprehensive in the world. Over 40 different species and cultivars are illustrated here, in a delightful selection based on their rarity, historical importance and sometimes simply their popular appeal. It takes a botanical painter of Dr McAllen's distinction to do justice to the breathtaking beauty and sheer diversity of the genus, and Robin Savill's beguiling historical record will surprise and inform clematis lovers and gardeners generally.| SKU | Unavailable |
