Amazing Plants of the World (World of Amazement series)

This botanical exploration presents forty-one unusual plants rather than focusing on familiar species. Its setting is Dr. Carnations’s garden, where a botanist spends his time among flowers and feels more like a plant than a person. The plants and fungi include smelly and carnivorous examples, as well as ones that resemble people, animals, or objects. Humorous text accompanies whimsical, colorful illustrations throughout this tour of striking botanical forms.
