VERTICORDIA

 The Turner of Hearts

 

Written by Elizabeth George, illustrated by Margaret Pieroni

Verticordia picta painted by Margret Pieroni

Western Australian wildflowers are internationally renowned for their beauty and variety,  verticordias even more than most others. 

Verticordia: The Turner of Hearts brings together for the first time available information on all the described taxa of Verticordia (101 species, 13 subspecies and 30 varieties) providing a comprehensive, user-friendly guide to their identification and cultivation. 

Species are presented in a systematic sequence that allows for easy comparison. The book is illustrated throughout with beautiful watercolours and line drawings by Margaret Pieroni, one of Australia's most talented botanical artists. Photographs of plants in their natural habitat are also included. 

Verticordia: The Turner of Hearts is the definitive guide to this exquisite and unique Australian wildflower. It is A4 size (297 by 210 mm) and has 432 pages.
