Begonias of Peninsular Malaysia
by Ruth Kiew
From the back cover: First and
foremost, this book is written to interest
the naturalist and gardener in the wealth of
wild begonias that grow in rain forest but
without sacrificing scientific accuracy. The
profusion of photographs, watercolors,
paintings and botanical drawings, and the
minimum use of technical jargon intend to
make the book accessible to all. On the
other hand, botanical rigour is maintained
by provision of a key for identification,
complete nomenclature and descriptions, and
specimen lists. The book is comprehensive
including all the 52 native species as well
as two garden escapes. Thirteen new species
and one variety are described here for the
first time. $55.00 (includes shipping.)
