James Knock, who lives in the United Kingdom,
has been a dedicated collector of Strawn waterlily cultivars
for many years and is an expert in their identification and cultivation.
Most cultivars were obtained directly from Strawn Water Gardens
in the years 1994 through 1998. Forty one Strawn hybrids are
represented in his collection and nearly 300 images appear in
these galleries.
As an added bonus, James takes us through
seasonal and age related changes in coloration of many Strawn
cultivars. High summer in England, sometimes only two to three
weeks long, provides the most dramatic colors of all, often not
seen in other climates. None of the images have been color enhanced
or color adjusted. His notes on each cultivar make these pages
truly definitive. |
