Description

Green Kingdom traces the plant kingdom through its long lineage, from its earliest beginnings to the astonishing variety that covers the earth today. Across half a billion years, the book follows the many ways plants have found to survive, spread and flourish.

The focus is on ingenuity. Rather than a catalogue of species, it tells the story of how plant life developed over time, which makes it a natural choice for gardeners, walkers and anyone curious about where the living world around them came from.
