A stylishly illustrated compendium of 100 herbs, designed to enrich
our understanding of all their uses. This isn't just a book for the
kitchen - it's for the greenhouse, the medicine cabinet, the coffee
table... Award-winning designer Caz Hildebrand's Herbarium is a
21st-century reboot of the traditional herbal compendium. The
visual genius behind the international bestseller The Geometry of
Pasta, she has created abstract forms and vibrant colours to
illustrate 100 essential herbs and to reveal their hidden
properties. From bergamot, comfrey and dill to sassafras, vervain
and wasabi, all types of herbs are covered; each is explained
through the fascinating history of their uses and symbolism. There
are tips on how to use them as seasonings and how to create healing
potions, as well as advice on when and how to grow them. Herbarium
celebrates all facets of herbs and all their life-enhancing
properties.
