Description

The Botanical City is illustrated with the most exquisite 18th-century artworks. Revealing the hidden secrets of plants and flowers growing on your doorstep, this stunning book takes inspiration from Flora Londinensis, an 18th century botanical account of London by William Curtis, housed in Kew's Library. William Curtis is famous for establishing Curtis's Botanical Magazine, the longest-running illustrated botanical periodical journal still published today. The plants in Flora Londinensis are not only still with us in cities all over the world but are more relevant and important than ever before. The Botanical City brings Curtis's work to life with modern, playful text written by Kew horticultural expert Hélèna Dove and esteemed author Harry Adès, along with beautiful botanical illustrations taken from the original work. Inside is a wealth of unusual facts, recipes, growing tips and more, making this the perfect gift. Hardback 176pages 75 colour botanical illustrations 283 x 184 mm Published by Hoxton Mini Press in association with RBG Kew.
