New Bulb-related Book

I had the privledge of picking up my pre-publication copy of a new book today. Heirloom Bulbs For Today (Chris Wiesinger) should be on shelves soon. Chris has made it his passion to preserve the heirloom bulbs in the south. There is a nice section on H. Johnsonii. The photos are fantastic as are the watercolors by artist Loela Barry. If you know a gardener who will appreciate the beauty of bulbs, as well as a great book...look for this! I am so thrilled with it that I have picked it up several times tonight to read another bit, look through at the difference sections, and read a little more! While he focuses on heirlooms, he does not discredit the holiday "amaryllis".

I have no connection with the author other than I have seen him speak on several occassions. He is a very nice young man with a great future ahead of him. His company is "Southern Bulb Company" and you might see a preview of the book at the website.
