Book Description
Excerpt from The Flowers and Gardens of Japan An apology is due to the reader for adding this volume to the long list of books already written on Japan; but, being a lover of flowers myself I found there was no book giving a short account of the flora of the country which is so often called the Land of Flowers. Hence my excuse for offering these pages, either to those who may be intending to visit, or to those who may wish to recall the memories of a sojourn in the Land of the Rising Sun. The book does not pretend to furnish a complete list of all the flowers to be found in the country, but rather to give a description of those which are most remarkable for their beauty and profusion, and which are most closely associated with Japan.
