À propos de l'auteur
Joel Zyla is a lifelong lover of plants, orchids most of all, who was first led into the woods as a boy by his grandfather and taught to look. He lives in West Virginia, where several of these orchids grow wild, and a Coast Guard career from the Great Lakes to the northern California coast introduced him to more of them. When he is not looking for lady's slippers he is often tending fungi instead, on inoculated logs and a wood-chip bed behind the house.

The Patient Flower (Hardcover)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. A portrait of the most cunning, most patient flowers in North America.Kneel down at a lady's slipper orchid and you are looking at a confidence trick thirty million years in the making. The pouch that stops you in your tracks was never meant for your eyes; it is a machine, tuned over deep time to lure a particular bee into working for free. And beneath that trick lies a deeper one: from its first hours as a dust-fine seed, every lady's slipper depends utterly on a fungus it cannot see, in a partnership we are only beginning to understand.The Patient Flower is a wonder-first portrait of all twelve of North America's native lady's slipper orchids - the pink and the showy, the prairie white and the ram's-head, the serpentine specialist of the California seeps and the palomino of the Aleutian fog. It is a book about deception and dependence, about plants that can outlive the forests around them and refuse to be dug up and carried home, and about why learning to notice them is the first step to keeping them.By the end, you will not be able to walk past one again. A wonder-first portrait of all twelve of North America's native lady's slipper orchids: flowers that trick bees into working for free and hinge on a fungus they cannot see. About deception, dependence, and learning to notice them. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
