Author: Robert Scott
This book is the first and only book dedicated solely to the genus Fouquieria (aka Ocotillo). It contains an introduction to the genus followed by a species by species account which includes F. columnaris, which some consider to belong in its own genus: Idria.
Each species account includes a description and a chart with habitat and cultivation details as well as a distribution map. Most species feature multiple color photos.
Following the species accounts is a very handy section for comparative identification by flowers, leaves/stems, and overall form. In these three sections, photos of all species are presented in a way that all can be seen without turning the page.
Finally a section detailing the subspecies of F. splendens concludes the book.
The color photos are not the highest quality reproductions, but certainly adequate for the work.
