BOOK

Kalmia , Mountain Laurel and Related Species

Richard A. Jaynes

Now in its third edition, this definitive study by the pre-eminent breeder of kalmias reflects the dramatic recent introductions of these beautiful shrubs. It includes all seven species of Kalmia and nearly 80 recognized cultivars (up from 48 in the previous edition).

"Jaynes has done a masterful job for serious amateurs as well as in pulling together the latest and best research for the most sophisticated professional. This book will be the absolute last word for anyone interested in mountain laurels and other Kalmia. He has managed to do the almost impossible task of choosing language that is appropriate for both audiences without diluting the text."
