Some great books worth having in the library at home

[happypalms]

Some great books worth having as a resource for reference are worth it in any library with vast knowledge from Authors all around the globe who are passionate about the field they work in most of my collection of books I purchased way before I was using the internet and I still go through them for that extra reference point on a certain plant you can learn a lot from a book.

great stuff, these all seem fantastic! 

I'd also recommend Designing with Palms by Jason Dewees. Great book for display and reference, with tons of great photos, planting and care information, and inspiration for palms in any type of garden.

"The Tropical Look" is a fabulous parlour book.

Kinzy nailed it but I cannot locate Palms by Desmond Muirhead, which gives more of a Western perspective. I have two Riffle books along with the eponymous Cultivated Palms with Riffle and Craft. The last book pictured is The Plant World In Florida by Henry Nehrling 1933 with Introduction by David Fairchild. The book details Dr. Nehrhling's journey from growing plants and palms in Gotha, Fl. ( near Orlando) to Naples, Fl.
