This highly illustrated guidebook details every species of jasmine that is cultivated in gardens, as well as the genus's habitat and distribution in the wild and its propagation. An additional chapter focuses on the uses of jasmine scent in the perfume industry, explaining why it has long been an important ingredient in some of the world's most exclusive—and expensive—perfumes.

            
Nearly every cultivated species is illustrated by either a contemporary or antique botanical painting, as well as detailed line drawings and close-up photographs. The result is the ultimate reference to this perennially popular garden staple.
