Klappentext
Uncover the romance and revealing nature of plants
A beautiful collection of 30 plant stories, The Pleasure of Plants celebrates a rude name, a suggestive appearance, or unusual reproduction antics. Illustrated and laced with fascinating facts, tantalising tales, and baffling biology, this compendium brings the private life of plants alive.
Whether explaining how "Shaggy solider" or "Sticky Willy" got their names, or the importance of catfishing for pollination, The Pleasure of Plants explains how sex is at the heart of plant reproduction. But there is a serious side too, revealing the interconnected world of humans and plants. Ever wondered why both plants and humans use scent for attraction? Or considered how "popping the cherry" ever entered our vernacular?
Whether you're enticed by their looks or intrigued by their names, you'll want to know more - and return for a second date with these fascinating plants.
