Bulbs have within them the hidden reserves to remain out of sight during adversity, and emerge swiftly when conditions are favourable. Triggered by initial rains, or sudden fires, the flowerheads emerge with all their character and allure. Enticing a pollinator, and liberating their seeds, the bulbs retire to slumber and re-energise, primed for an upcoming season, a cycle so intricate as to match that of the universe itself. We can only marvel at their complexity as we behold a held of brunsvigias, haemanthus or nerines, where, just a week earlier, the ground seemed barren and lifeless. This superb field guide will be treasured for years to come. Book jacket.
