\nA Portable Latin for Gardeners: More than 1,500 Essential Plant Names and the Secrets They Contain
\nby James Armitage
\nHaving an understanding of botanical Latin unlocks an entirely new layer of the plant world. Gardeners deciding between a Crocus flavus and Crocus graveolens will know that one produces deep yellow flowers while the other boasts a prominent smell. They can tell whether a plant should have one (unifolius), two (diphyllus), or even nine leaves (enneaphyllus). And they can catch the nods to Sir Joseph Banks in Cordyline banksia and Queen Victoria in Agave victoriae-reginae.
\nA Portable Latin for Gardeners is the perfect quick reference for working in the garden, shopping for plants, or doing botanical research?and no prior knowledge of Latin is required. The 1,500 terms are grouped by categories, making it easy to describe color, size, form, habitat, scent, taste, and time.?
