Description

‘The lily species and their Bulbs’ by author and Wild Lily Hunter, Mr. Pontus Wallsten

Hard cover, Pontus dives deep into the species world of Lilium. Exploring and participating in the cultures of each unique species and their requirements. Going on such great lengths he travels the world to capture photographs of the blooms as well as the bulb structure, thus concluding in achieving positive identification. I become enchanted, as he takes us on his journey by observing species in the wild, making us feel as if we are right along aside of him and his research team.  With personal interviews within the back half of the book we learn their secrets that have made them successful as world hybridizers.  For those that have a love of lilium and their related species, this is the book for you. Unavailable just anywhere, and especially signed by the author himself.   Spoke to the author at holiday 2024, and was informed that it is almost sold out and will not be going for a reprint.  These are signed personally by my friend Pontus especially for Hartle-Gilman Garden Lilies.  What a rare delight for your own personal library.
