Bizarre botanicals : how to grow string-of-hearts, jack-in-the-pulpit, panda ginger, and other weird and wonderful plants / Larry Mellichamp and Paula Gross ; foreword by Tony Avent.
Plant experts Larry Mellichamp and Paula Gross take readers on a curious botanical journey of weirdly wonderful plants. Bizarre Botanicals features over 75 astonishing plants that have extraordinary abilities: from pyrotechnic spores that can burst into flame when ignited, to flowers that lure insects to their deaths. Each plant profile includes essential care and cultivation information. A difficulty scale alerts gardeners to how easy (or difficult) it is to grow the plant at home.
