GREEN PLANET: THE SECRET LIFE OF PLANTS (BBC BOOKS)

From the richest jungles to the harshest deserts, from alpine forests to steaming swamps, plants are as aggressive, competitive and dramatic as the animals on our planet. Here you will discover agents of death which ruthlessly engulf their host plant, and plants that form deep and complex relationships with other species, such as the desert cacti which use nectar-loving bats to pollinate. Using the latest technologies and showcasing over two decades of new discoveries, Green Planet reveals remarkable behaviour, emotional stories and surprising heroes.
