Cycads of the World

Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

Cycads superficially resemble ferns, but are a type of plant so old that dinosaurs feasted on them. Today they are widely sought for gardens, and many of the species are endangered. For horticulturalists, botanists, and general readers, the prehistory and history, distribution, cultivation, biology, propagation, and other aspects, are discussed. Highly and colorfully illustrated. Includes a glossary without pronunciation.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
