"The enchanting African Violet, native of Tanzania, has captured the hearts of plant lovers throughout the world. Now, after a century of hybridising, the extraordinary range of colours and forms available are illustrated here in stunning colour photos.
Tony Clements is a Gold Medal winning expert on African Violets and writes from twenty years' experience of commercial violet growing. He knows all the secrets of keeping these supposedly 'tricky' plants in beautiful condition, with an impressively long flowering season. He gives expert advice on every aspect of caring or and cultivating African Violets at home - all written in a remarkably clear, straight-forward style, completely free of technical jargon.
This important new book will enthuse would-be collectors of African Violets, give fresh encouragement to anyone who has previously found them difficult to grow - and even reduce the mortality rate amongst violets subject to mistreatment and misunderstanding!"
