Australia is a land of floral wonder. With around 24,000 native plant species, 90 per cent of them are unique to our island home. They are also some of the most ancient and fierce varieties on Earth, cleverly adapting, over millions of years, to drastic changes in climate and landscapes.From microscopic ferns to the mighty mountain ash, this beautifully illustrated book is a garden of curious, colourful and occasionally deadly plant life. Wander through Australia's botanical heritage - and discover the role our flora plays in the future of our planet.
