BIZARRE PLANTS
- Magical - Monstrous - Mythical
William A. Emboden
Coco de Mer
'Bizarre Plants' is a book
about plants so monstrous, mythical or magical that to ignore them would be
to discredit man's sojourn through his fantastic world. It contains little
known and forgotten histories of nature’s marvels that transcend the
ordinary - the upside down looking baobab tree whose fruits resemble
sausages - the fabled Coco de Mer from under the sea whose seed is like a
giant female pelvis and more...
Coco-de-Mer
'Bizarre Plants' details those
plants which are so spectacular, grotesque or unusual that they have
expelled bad dreams, expurgated madness, inspired love cured melancholy and
rendered man invisible. Plants that have tumbled houses, brought about the
defeat of armies and induced the entire population of towns to scandalous
behaviour. It describes plants that when exhibited, have drawn crowds of
reporters and film crews from Paramount Studios to record the events.
The book details Ginseng...
which has been called the wonder of the world, manroot, man-essence,
thunderbolt root, seed-of-the-earth, holy herb...
It also details Welwitschia
mirabilis..... a contorted giant growing in the deserts of South West Africa
which is estimated to live between 1000 and 2000 years or more!
And........... Plants
that eat animals.
