Local Description1996, First edition. A fine, unmarked copy in a fine d/w. Scans available if required. DescriptionThis volume deals with four families of the order of Gentianales: Loganiaceae; Gentianaceae; Apocynaceae; and Asclepiadaceae. It provides descriptions of 62 genera and 326 species in these families. Most are tropical or subtropical and though they have scented flowers, and many have tropical fruit and foliage. Asclepiadaceae are perhaps best known for their very specialized floral structure, and many, including Hoya and Dischidia are grown as horticultural subjects. |
