"Beautiful Bulbous Plants for the Open Air" by John Weathers is a horticultural guide written in the late 19th century. This book focuses on the cultivation, care, and varieties of bulbous plants suitable for outdoor gardens, aiming to elevate their status within gardening literature. Readers can expect detailed information on soil preparation, planting practices, and the selection of plant species that thrive outdoors. At the start of the work, Weathers emphasizes the growing popularity of bulbous plants in gardens, highlighting the ease of cultivation and a vast array of options available to gardeners. He mentions well-known varieties such as Tulips, Daffodils, and Narcissi, while also introducing less commonly known species that could become popular over time. The opening portion discusses the history of bulb cultivation, providing insights into their introduction to British gardens and the botanical classifications relevant to cultivation, setting the stage for more practical guidance on care and propagation in subsequent chapters.
