Baumann, H. Greek Wild Flowers and Plant Lore in Ancient Greece.
1st. Ed. Rep. Pub. Herbert Press. 1996 pp.252 with colour and b/w. photos., throughout. 8vo. Fine hardback in fine dw.
Greece is far richer in flowers than any other European country, with more than 6,000 species as against 2,300 in the British Isles. These plants because they are virtually the same as those which existed at the time of Homer, provide a direct link with the world of the ancient Greeks. The close relationship between plants and man in that period is evident in the Greek myths, in the way flowers and climbing plants inspired Greek art, in the use of plants in medicine and the importance of certain plants in the ancient economy.
