Reviews

[Katy Dickinson · Rating 4 out of 5]

An excellent reference for succulent plant enthusiasts. Many photographs plus good information on specimen collection and naming.

[Lisa Vance · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great reference book for identifying succulents when used in combination with Succulents 2. In some places the picture may only be of the flower hindering identification until the plant blooms, but in general full of great pictures for identification. Not a book for cultivation or propagation information.

Pictures are not great and information is minimal. Even though dated, many species not found elsewhere are included.
