Published to coincide with the opening of The Eden Project in 2001, "Plants of Eden" is the first book to focus on the plants themselves. Lavishly illustrated, it covers plants in each of the three biomes - Humid Tropics, Warm Temperate and Temperate. "Plants of Eden" fascinates and informs. It tells the stories of some of the stars in this living theatre of plants and people: where the plants come from; how they grow and are harvested; what people use them for, and how and when some of them arrived in Britain. Above all, it illustrates our dependency on plants, and why we must look after them and their habitats.
