Brent Heath and his wife Becky plant more than smiles. In the 30-odd years since Brent took over the Daffodil Mart in Gloucester County, Virginia, the farm has become one of the world's most successful producers of daffodil bulbs for use in home, as well as commercial, gardens. Here in this new, revised and updated edition of their definitive Daffodils for American Gardens, Brent and Becky Heath share their vast knowledge and experience in the world of daffodils in crisp, clear prose, supported by hundreds of full-color illustrations as well as instructive drawings.
Beginning with essential botanical information, through a discussion of the techniques of planting and culture, to naturalizing and hybridizing, and finally to lists of Daffodil Societies and recommended reading, here is all you need to know about one of our most widely available and best-loved flowers.
