Practical Latin for Gardeners : More Than 1500 Essential Plant Names And The Secrets They Contain
ISBN: 9781760295950
Publication Date: 22 February 2017

Practical Latin for Gardeners is a timely and useful guide to plant names based on the bestselling Latin for Gardeners. It contains 1,500 of the most useful and widespread Latin names, organised into thematic chapters including Colour, Plant Form and Habitat. Each chapter is divided into smaller groups, such as large plants and small plants, allowing gardeners to make new connections and discoveries in a way standard alphabetical lists simply don't permit.

'Behind the Name' boxes further increase the book's practical value, and botanical watercolours ensure that it is beautiful as well as functional.
