Micromegas Posted January 27, 2011 Does anyone know of a good book for plants of the Andes, esp. around Peru but the whole Andes even, that is in English. Something like wildflowers of south america, plants of the andes etc. that has photos and text? Doesn't have to have 1000s of species just an introduction of sorts. I haven't had any luck finding anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fydesvindico Posted January 27, 2011 Mountain plants of Venezuela, the Coastal Range, the Andes and the Tepuis: Bromeliads Is a good one... If you've got a spare $150. Doesn't touch on peru too much, but still a great book to have around! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Micromegas Posted January 29, 2011 Thanks fydesvindico, would like something that covers a bit more than Bromeliads! as awesome as they are, and as nice as that book would be to own. However when searching for that book I came up with another called Flowering Plants of the Neotropics which looks good also. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
