This series of books presents the scientific principles that underlie production practices in horticulture. The series covers a number of major ornamental, vegetable and fruit crops, considered on a worldwide scale. The intended audience includes students and teachers in horticulture, as well as professional growers seeking to improve or update their scientific knowledge. This first volume considers ornamental bulb plants, including those with the related storage organs of corms and tubers. An immense amount of research literature has been distilled, such that general principles are stressed throughout, but common examples are considered in some detail, with less information on other species.
