In addition to in-depth discussion of scientific concepts, the book also covers the history of the passionflower, cultivation, propagation, pests and diseases, and medicinal properties. As well illustrated as it is informative, Passiflora : Passionflowers of the World includes 343 color photos and 258 line drawings that reveal the immense variation in flower form and color found among members of this extraordinary genus."--Jacket
