About this product

Product Information

Gardeners love tulips, lilies, and pansies--the common, but beautiful, plants found in the average garden. But there are realms in the plant world far beyond these familiar favorites. In Bizarre Botanicals , plant experts Larry Mellichamp and Paula Gross take readers on a curious botanical journey of weirdly wonderful plants that can be grown at home. 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. There's no reason to forsake lilies and petunias. But after reading Bizarre Botanicals , gardeners will want to take a walk on the weird side and try a few of these peculiar plants for themselves.

This book was not in "good" condition. It was filthy with stains and a dark sticky substance on the bottom of the cover that I immediately cleaned off! There are several pages that are torn, bent and written on with both pen and pencil, which I can still see after having erased. Over priced.

  • Did not order

    I did not order it, I did not want it. Fortunately the owner returned my money. I don't know how I got it or was charged for it.
