A unique treasure........one of a kind!!!!!!: I came accross this book completely by chance a few years ago, through an exotic plant dealer and was instantly smitten by the treasures hidden within. It is the ONLY book I have found dedicated to the unique group of plants that are the Caudaciformes and Pachycaul Succulents. It's informative and entertaining with exceptional fotographs. Every time I open it I find something new. EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!
Fascinating book. A must for succulent collectors.: This group of plants is fascinating and well worth learning about. I have used this book so much that I need to purchase another copy of it. My copy is getting to be worn out. I highly recommend this book to any succulent collector. Gordon Rowley has outdone himself with this one.
This author is a master: I am a long time collector on the east coast of those magical caudiciforms. I have purchased them on the west coast. This author is the definitive master when it comes to the knowledge of these specific plants. I am proud to finally own a copy. This group is scultptural and not for the impatient. I have had many of my caudiciforms or pachys over 15 years. This book is a treasure and a must have for the serious collector and anyone who admires this specialty.
the "bible" for fatplant enthusiasts: The greatest book - to this day - that was ever written about these great and unusual plants.
Great Book: Great book if you are into these types of plants. I read it cover to cover in 1 sitting :)
