Reviews
"This is a splendid and detailed book, profusely illustrated in colour with excellent modern photographs and a few reproductions from early Chinese and classic European journals."—Martyn Rix, Gardens Illustrated, July 2000
"Outstanding academic title."—Choice, January 2000
"Valder gives us a window on a sophisticated garden ethic very different from Europe's, and an encyclopedia of more than 4000 Chinese garden plants. Many will inevitably become more widely seen here because of their natural resistance to pests and diseases now arriving from Asia via global trade."—Boston Globe, December 1, 1999
