This book may change your understanding of what plants are. They can communicate with each other. They can change their chemical makeup to dissuade predators. Some change their appearance to blend in with their neighbors better.

I learned many things, definitely recommend if science and plants and nature are interesting to you.

Librariana I have a coworker who I'll definitely mention this one to! Thanks, @Soubhiville 5mo

My plan for tonight's #Hyggehour is to browse Amy Stewart's amazing "spirited toast to the marriage of botany and booze." While doing so, I shall be sipping a festive, sloe gin hot toddy. ??❄️?

What are your plans?

#Adventathon @bookmarktavern Reading this book for #Naturalitsy, so grateful it was picked because it's an absolute delight.This bit made me laugh out loud at the strange ways we anthropomorphise other living things that are utterly indifferent to us.

BookmarkTavern Ha! What an interesting book! 5mo

My mom and I decided to make a little display in the living room for our dog Toppy right after she passed away. Our display has Toppy‘s ashes with her picture on it, her paw print with her name on it and some of her favorite toys that she liked playing with. Something I‘ve started working on is writing down some happy memories of her because it was recommended in an article I read online.

kelli7990 I think the writing is helping me. I didn‘t write for a few days because I couldn‘t think of anything but after my walk today, I thought of a few memories. As I think of more memories then I‘ll write them down. 5mo
Susanita That‘s a very nice display. 5mo

#NaturaLitsy

This is such a beautiful book. Mabey is a prosaic nature writer who extols the complexities of the botanical world and its impact on our art, history, literature, medicine, and science.
My favourite chapters were The Cult of Celebrity, Growing Together and particularly Chiaroscoro.
5 ⭐️

This month's #Naturalitsy pick led me on a journey through the world of plants and how humans have interacted with these fascinating creatures throughout history. It fell short of what I was expecting but it was a pleasant and interesting read nonetheless, and the author is simply a wonderful writer.
