    A wonderful book

    Full of facts put in a way that's easy to understand. Packed with information about the species and also advice on the care and cultivation of the hybrids with many illustrations. The section on propagation is informative and invites the reader to try their hand to create new cultivars. A very well written guide to Streptocarpus
