Toutes Les Plantes Pour Sols Calcaires

Although two thirds of France's soil is limestone, until now there has been no book on plants adapted to this seemingly hostile soil. Trees, shrubs, perennials and bulbs are described here in detail, going through each family to describe the appropriate plants, but also those that are surprising because of their astonishing ability to withstand limestone or to adapt to unusual conditions. This is a very complete book on calcareous ornamental flora, which is much richer and more attractive than is usually thought.
