Description

The Plant Messiah is the inspirational story of a man who has devoted his life to saving incredible species from extinction. Carlos Magdalena's remarkable journey takes him to the most remote and dangerous parts of the world in search of the rarest exotic plants, and back to the Tropical Nursery at Kew, where he uses pioneering techniques to help them thrive.

From the tiny waterlily Nymphaea thermarum to the massive Huarango tree with roots over 50 metres long, Carlos has a remarkable ability to bring breathtakingly beautiful plants back from the brink of extinction. This book is a testament to his dedication and passion for making our planet a greener and happier place.
