Bobby J. Ward traverses the mundane to the mystical in this passionate study of eighty garden plants as they appear in literature and myth. Quotations from poems, novels, plays, and stories, some as recent as the nineteenth century, some dating from ancient Greece, vividly illustrate the rich histories of our favorite plants. This book traces the origins of both scientific or Latin names and common names for each plant. And Ward explains each plant's place in historical events, its connection to Greek and Roman~or other~mythologies, its use in religious ceremonies, its symbolism in the arts, or its traditional medicinal uses. Ward has read widely in authors as diverse as the plants they write about ~ alongside the great poets are some obscure writers whose books can be found only on the dusty shelves of old bookstores. Not intended to be systematic, the anthology's criterion for inclusion was the freshness and quality of the original works rather than the fame of their writers. As Ann Lovejoy notes in her foreword: Here gathered in a single, fruitful volume is a harvest many years in the gleaning. Curious, questing, and determined, Ward has trailed, traced, and tracked down hundreds of literary references to many of our favorite flowers. His patience provides us all with the rich reward of hours of sumptuous browsing in this storehouse of reverie. It is a perfect bedside book for the gardener, a source of continuing delight whether read from start to finish or dipped into according to one's mood.
