As a companion anthology to Flora Curiosa, Botanica Delira collects
21 short stories of botanical wonders and horrors, strange plants
that delight and sometimes kill. These imaginative flowers and
trees (and even one cactus) are a literary outgrowth of newspaper
"wonder stories" that purported to describe rare natural marvels.
To illustrate this "nature fakery," ten brief newspaper and
magazine stories are included, showing the variety of early
botanical literary hoaxes, from man-eating plants to electric
trees.
