The Naming of Names by Anna Pavord

As Heard on The Daily Gardener Podcast:

Copy of Grow That #Garden Library (3)

Today's book recommendation: The Naming of Names by Anna Pavord

A few words to describe this book: Gorgeous. Indispensable.

Pavord traces the history of plant taxonomy from the ancient Greeks to 17th-century British botanist John Ray.

I'm down with anything by Pavord - and you can get used copies of this excellent book on Amazon through the link around $3. That's downright criminal.

SI HORTUM IN HORTORIA PODCASTA IN BIBLIOTEHCA HABES, NIHIL DEERIT.

"If you have a garden, a garden podcast, and a library,
you have everything you need."
