Gardening & Environment Education & Reference Science & Nature
Francis Ernest Lloyd’s classic reference, The Carnivorous Plants, returns in this sturdy 1976 illustrated paperback. A trusted botanist, Lloyd guides hobbyists and students through the weird, wonderful world of pitcher plants, sundews and Venus flytraps without drowning the reader in jargon.
Over 350 pages of detailed descriptions, life cycles and cultivation tips are paired with clear line drawings that make identification simple. Whether you’re potting your first sarracenia or researching evolutionary quirks, this volume balances scientific depth with practical advice.
The book shows gentle shelf time—light edge creasing, a touch of foxing on the page block—but every page remains crisp, unmarked and ready for note-taking. A solid, affordable copy for gardeners, educators or nature lovers building a specialized library.
Grab this illustrated edition and cultivate your own carnivorous jungle without the premium collector price.
