Summary
A fun and fact-filled exploration of forty fascinating plants.
Celebrate the weird, wacky, and wonderful world of plants with a book that revels in the diversity of the botanical world.
Plants are truly awe-inspiring. They can be vast, minute, smelly, or spectacularly ugly. Some look remarkably like animals, others are carnivorous, some grow from the ground, some live in water, while others grow parasitically – taking another plant as its host and their nutrients for itself.
