While sorting out my library in preparation for moving, I discovered
that I still have two extra copies of "Flora nativa de valor
ornamental, Zona Norte," by Riedemann, Aldunate, and Teillier. I
ordered a batch of these for a group of friends when it was
published, as it is very hard to buy because the publisher insists on
payment by bank transfer. This full-color book is one of a series on
the different regions of Chile and includes a large paperbound volume
with descriptions (in Spanish) of genera and species, including
cultivation information and native sites, as well as a smaller book
"Rutas y senderos" ("roads and trails") with suggested routes for
botanizing, in this case in the arid north of the country. The two
volumes come in a plastic case. They are expensive. I can't post
commercial details on this site, but if you are interested, please
write to me privately.
