Abstract
THE first edition of this notable work appeared in 1927 and set a new standard for its kind. A nineteen–page supplement of corrections and emendations appeared in 1935. The original issue is now exhausted, and as in the interval new species and hybrids have been named and introduced and the cultivation of others extended, the new edition now includes more than 2,500 species fully described, with 2,685 varieties, and 1,940 species and hybrids briefly mentioned.
