The Green Planet by Simon Barnes is a groundbreaking exploration of the secret lives of plants.

From the richest jungles to the harshest deserts, from the snowiest alpine forest to the remotest steaming swamp, Green Planet takes us on a journey through some of the most diverse habitats on Earth. We discover plants that are as aggressive and competitive as animals, and those that form deep and complex relationships with other species. By shedding new light on the fascinating world of plants, this book offers a fresh perspective on our planet's natural history. With its unique blend of science, storytelling and stunning visuals, The Green Planet is an unforgettable journey into the heart of nature.
