In this book, Geall embarks on an enquiry into our tastes and affectations, covering hot topics such as aesthetics, appropriation, fair trade, floriculture, globalization, indigeneity, modernism, seasonality and tokenism--to name only a few of the over eighty entries presented here in an accessible A-to-Z format. She shares personal stories and ideas from growers and designers, weaving her narratives between art, ecology, and history to get the reader truly thinking about their relationships to plants, gardens, and design."--Book jacket.
