The jewel-like watercolours of renowned Irish botanical artist
Wendy Walsh portray a personal selection of about 100 plants that
grow wild in Ireland or are cultivated in Irish gardens. Presented
in 33 thematic sections,Walsh's subjects range from well-loved and
distinctive native plants to exotic species introduced from the New
World and Asia, unusual plants that grow in some of the most
extreme environments in Ireland, and striking hybrids created by
plant breeders. Lively and accessible horticultural descriptions by
distinguished botanist E. Charles Nelson accompany the paintings,
celebrating the story of each plant along with its natural beauty.
The great gardens, famous plantsmen, fascinating journeys and
natural phenomena that have shaped the flora of Ireland spring to
life in Dr Nelson's engaging text. This elegant and unconventional
guide will kindle the imagination of any plant lover or admirer of
the Irish landscape.
