New Book


To add to the booklist that Tim has started, I am reading a new candidate for our shelves: The Looking-Glass Garden by Peter Thompson (Timber Press). The subtitle is Plants and Gardens of the Southern Hemisphere. $39.95 (US)Thompson was for many years the head of the physiology department at Kew and the author of three other books. He has traveled extensively in the Southern Hemisphere. So far I have noticed one focus is discussion of drought-tolerant plants.Excellent photographs. More on this one in a week or two. bill grant, central coast California
