Inhaltsangabe

The Genus Lavandula is the most comprehensive and authoritative account of lavenders to be published to date, focusing on their worldwide importance as garden plants and a mainstay of the perfumery and aromatherapy industries.
Describing some 39 species, their hybrids and nearly 400 cultivars, it brings together taxonomy, distribution, history and cultivation with additional chapters on propagation, pests and diseases, and an overview of their commercial products, essential oils and chemistry.
Illustrated in colour throughout, including 31 full page colour paintings, 45 line drawings and numerous maps. Close-up colour photographs and taxonomic keys ease identification, and the authors' unique position and expertise equip them perfectly to bring together the latest research. The Genus Lavandula is a unique reference for all - botanists, perfumers, aromatherapists, growers and gardeners - to a most loved aromatic plant.
