This complete guide gives all the information you need to choose, grow, and appreciate the beardless iris--from basic planting information to help beginners, to the essential hybridizing details that horticulturists need. Beardless irises are cousins of the more familiar bearded irises, but are much more variable, with plants ranging from four-inch-tall dwarfs with tiny flowers to five-foot stalks with dinner-plate-size flowers. In addition, beardless irises of at least one type will grow in virtually every gardening situation from dry shade to standing water in full sun. No other group of perennials offers such versatility. Here, all five major groups are covered in detail: Siberian, Japanese, Pacific Coast Native, spuria, and Louisiana. The garden uses, development of the modern hybrids, and recommended cultures are given for each of the diverse groups of beardless irises. In addition, a separate chapter covers the techniques for creating your own beardless hybrids.

Sava has the best house in all of Lukos. He built it himself, dreaming of the day when he and Milan, the man he loved, could live there and brave the harsh winters of Lukos together-only to be devastated when Milan was found dead in the spring. Fraught with grief, Sava resigns himself to spending his winters alone. Then a stranger appears on his doorstep, and everything changes. Victor is a scholar from Gerakia, a land known for its long summers and vibrant history, and he has never been more unprepared in his life. Abandoned on the inhospitable island of Lukos after a disastrous relationship, Victor has to adapt quickly to survive. It helps, of course, that he's taken in by Sava, who has the biggest heart of any man Victor has ever known. Victor and Sava start to make a home together, growing close as snow falls outside, but the true danger of a Lukos winter is closer than they suspect...

From Man Booker Prize Finalist Ali Smith, Winter is the second novel in her Seasonal Quartet. This much-anticipated follow-up to Autumn is one of the Best Books of the Year from the New York Public Library. “A stunning meditation on a complex, emotional moment in history.” —Time Winter. Bleak. Frosty wind, earth as iron, water as stone, so the old song goes. And now Art’s mother is seeing things. Come to think of it, Art’s seeing things himself. When four people, strangers and family, converge on a fifteen-bedroom house in Cornwall for Christmas, will there be enough room for everyone? Winter. It makes things visible. Ali Smith’s shapeshifting Winter casts a warm, wise, merry and uncompromising eye over a post-truth era in a story rooted in history and memory and with a taproot deep in the evergreens, art and love.

The diversity of bearded irises rivals that of any other perennial grown in temperate climates. For some gardeners, they bring back warm memories of a grandparent's garden; for others, they're a cutting-edge plant with a seemingly endless capacity for producing new forms and patterns. As the manager of Rainbow Iris Farm and co-editor of the Bulletin of the American Iris Society, Kelly Norris is the authority on gardening with bearded irises. His introductory chapters offer tips for successful growth, garden design, plant selection, and "creating" new irises. A Guide to Bearded Irises also provides portraits of the most outstanding plants in each of the six recognized categories, from the dainty miniature dwarf bearded irises to the stately tall bearded irises. A resource section lists specialty nurseries, organizations devoted to bearded irises, and public gardens with notable iris collections.

In #1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen’s mesmerizing novel, one woman risks her life to win the future—and the love—she’s always dreamed of. When Ysabel Belfort leaves her beloved island of San Miguel to marry a wealthy eccentric, she exchanges a life of innocence for one devoid of passion. For seven years, she counts the days until she’s able to reclaim what she was forced to leave behind. Even after her husband’s death, she cannot return home without securing the help of another man: her estranged stepson. By his side, Ysabel embarks on a journey that takes an intoxicating turn. Charismatic news anchorman Jed Corbin has no interest in anything remotely related to his father, but he can’t ignore the wild thoughts that run through his mind every time the young widow is near. Too bad Ysabel’s proposition doesn’t involve getting tangled between the sheets. Instead, she’s desperate for an experienced escort to San Miguel, the same place where Jed once narrowly escaped with his life. But as Jed soon discovers, he can’t say no to a woman who drives him to the brink of desire—and right back into a whirlwind of danger. Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from other Loveswept titles.
