The Botanical Bible is an elegant and comprehensive introduction to the beauty, diversity, and value of the botanical world.
“This encyclopedia for flora fiends is packed with info on everything from photosynthesis to fig leaf ice cream, plus it’s pretty enough for the coffee table.” –Southern Living Author Sonya Patel Ellis is a writer, editor, and artist who works primarily with pressed botanicals. She founded The Herbarium Project to explore the parallels and interconnectivity among nature, art, books, and culture. Here she covers:- The evolution of the plant kingdom
- The history of horticulture

Ellis’s love of flora pushes her to share the wide variety of knowledge she possesses: botany, recipes, herbal uses, seasonal foods, botanic artists (famous and not)–there is a bit of everything, often with essential details.
Gorgeously illustrated throughout, and packed with information and hands-on projects, The Botanical Bible offers both practical information and the beauty of the natural world in one package, perfect for display on a coffee table or to give as a gift.
