Just “wow”
Quite simply, this book is phenomenal. The photos and illustrations are stunning from beginning to end, and the content is very well-organized and accessible. It manages to contain tons of information without being overly technical. Hats off to the writers/designers of this book; it really is a huge achievement. For some reason, I recall not having the highest regard for DK books. No longer– this book and other recent entries (Trees, Microlife, etc.) have set a new standard for “Beautiful Science” coffee table-type books. Other publishers take note.

Beautiful and informative
I hesitated on this book for a while due to price, but it’s worth it. The book is beautiful, with many close-up photos, and it’s full of great information. Easy to read and understand but not watered down or over- simplified. It’s great and I love it.

What an absolutely gorgeous book!
This is a great book to add to your library if you’re interested in plants, their makeup, physiology, etc. The photography is wonderful and the information easily digestible and fascinating. This publisher-DK in partnership with Smithsonian , always does an outstanding job of creating beautiful books jam packed with details and imagery sure to capture the imagination and leave you wanting to investigate further. A sizable hardcover worthy of the coffee table, or in my case a place in my personal library collection. Highly recommend!

My son is obsessed with this book!
My son is almost 11 and really into plants. He had his plant book on his wish list and carries it all over the place even though itâs kind of huge! I like the way itâs organized, and the photos are just beautiful!

Information and images
For those who want to know full detail information about plants this is the book but I wanted it for art reference images to draw and paint it only have 4-5 images but also since I love flowers and plants I might keep it for gardening, itâs very heavy awesome layout
