spectacular to be found anywhere. The rich diversity of
tropical flora and climates allows for an astonishing
variety of forms, both native and introduced. Modern
tropical gardens afford a display of striking plants from
all over the world, in arrangements that blend the
traditions of many countries and cultures." "This highly
successful compendium presents a selection of the most
beautiful gardens of Hawaii, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore
and Indonesia, including Bali. For this revised edition,
William Warren, a widely recognized authority on the
subject, and Luca Invernizzi Tettoni, the internationally
renowned photographer, have added a number of magnificent
new gardens. Traditional and modern types are considered,
and the origins and individual features of each example are
discussed in full. With a special section giving information
on garden features, this will be a source of ideas and
inspiration to gardeners both in the tropics and in
temperate regions."--BOOK JACKET.
