A new revision of a major succulent group.
This is a 96 paged hard-cover book.
Gasterias are closely related to aloes and haworthias so much so that their similar features often confused early botanists.
Drought resistant and shade- loving , these shallow-rooted succulents adapt well to indoor conditions, even in Europe.
Descriptions of the 16 recognised Gasteria species with six interesting variations are presented.
together with highly sensitive watercolour illustrations.
A work of beauty, authority and integrity.
