A magnificent, illustrated look at the science of plants from a bestselling and award-winning partnership. After starting with the secret workings of a tree, the book transports readers billions of years into the past: back to the moment when plant life first appeared on our planet. Covering the evolution of plants, the creation and use of fossil fuels, and the extraordinary communities of plants around the world today, Nicola Davies and Emily Sutton combine essential biology with a powerful message - a call to protect the most precious colour on Earth.
