{"product_id":"flora-inside-the-secret-world-of-plants","title":"Flora: Inside the Secret World of Plants","description":"Let the experts at the Royal Botanic Gardens guide you around the beautiful and mysterious world that is the plant kingdom.\n\nFrom regulating the air we breathe to providing food, clothes, fuels, and medicines – plants are fundamental to our lives. Discover an extraordinary diversity of species, which includes a grass that grows a meter a day, roots that breathe air, and \"queen of the night\" cactuses whose rare blooms vanish before dawn.\n\nIn a combination of art and science, Flora celebrates plants from majestic trees to microscopic algae, explaining how they germinate, grow, and reproduce. It presents species that have evolved to accommodate pollinating insects such as the foxglove, and plants that have adapted to flourish in even the most hostile of habitats.\n\nPierre-Joseph Redoute in the 18th-century was described as the \"Raphael of flowers\". Flora showcases his botanical paintings as well as those of Georg Ehret and others in this gorgeous visual celebration of plants through the ages.\n\nWhether you are a keen gardener, naturalist, or botany student, this beautiful book is a treat that will entice, inform, and amaze.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1465474501\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1465474501.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:DK|Kew The Royal Botanic Gardens|Smithsonian Institution\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
