Personally Recommended Books
The Genus Pleione - Kew Monograph - Philip Cribb and Ian Butterfield. Philip Cribb has written a number of Orchid books and Ian is probably the UK's leading commercial grower and breeder of Pleiones. (sadly currently out of print)
The Genus Cyclamen - Kew Monograph - Christopher Grey-Wilson (1988)
Cyclamen, a guide for gardeners,
horticulturists and botanists - Christopher Grey-Wilson (2003). An excellent
book, covering all species and many varieties, along with details of their
cultivation. A must for Cyclamen lovers!
The Gardener's Guide to Growing
Fritillaries - Kevin Pratt & Michael Jefferson-Brown A very useful guide
that sets out the various groupings of Fritillaries with some wonderful photos!
(see below)
Narcissus – A Guide to Wild Daffodils – John W Blanchard.
