Slocum describes nearly 500 species and cultivars of waterlilies and lotuses, including 123 dazzling new hybrids. Each detailed entry includes information on the plant's flowers (size, color, and number at stamen) and its leaves (size and color). Slocum offers suggestions on where and how to grow each plant, taking care especially to recommend suitable pool sizes, and reveals any negative aspects of the plant. The 323 color photographs are splendid, and a glossary and a suggested further reading list complete the volume, a substantially expanded and updated work that incorporates some portions of Water Gardening: Waterlilies and Lotuses (1996) by Slocum and Peter Robinson.
