THE GENUS VIBURNUM
André Gayraud's new monograph is dedicated to the Viburnum genus, which he has defined as truly special because it is the only one that allows having a species or variety that remains in bloom in the garden for all 12 months of the year, even in winter under the snow. In addition, both the evergreen and deciduous shrubs come in dazzling fall colors, with a wide range of colorful fruits, ranging from green, blue, pink, and red to purple and black. They help beautify a garden from late summer to late winter, offering spectacular flowering with flat, ball-, or panicle-shaped flowers.
THE CORNUS MONOGRAPH
For fifty years, André Gayraud has traveled this world in search of the most beautiful varieties of Cornus. He "fell in love" with this plant when, as a young man, he was taking his first steps in garden design during one of his trips to Italy. Since then, he has never failed to include a specimen in his gardens. The monograph contains descriptions of the 620 varieties of Cornus with details on the species, varieties, hybrids, and cultivars found throughout the world. this work of international scientific interest contains papers by the leading Cornus experts: Dr. Elwin Orton and Prof. Molnar of Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA, and Professor Klymenko of the Academy of Sciences in Kyiv, Ukraine.
