I am looking for the best guide book for south american flowers. It should be printed in english. thanks.?

It doesnt matter what year its from, older may be better.. Leather bound or hardcover with watercolour pictures would be great also.. Hopefully it will say something along the lines of South American flower guide / reference in the title..
