By Peter D'Amato, co owner of California Carnivores and internationally renowned carnivorous plant expert. Peter has masterfully imparted his nearly fifty years of experience growing carnivorous plants into the pages of this book. He writes in a way that is accessible to eight-year-olds, and yet it is so brilliant that it has become even the most experienced grower's cultivation and propagation reference.

" Committe members applauded this in-depth look at an unusual and fascinating group of plants that are diversely represented in North America. Nursery propagated selections of some carnivorous plants are just beginning to become available, so this book is a timely reference on how to grow these plants, many of which are endangered in the wild. "I never thought this book would end up on my bedside table as compelling reading, but it did. The strangeness of the plants and their behavior is fascinating," said Bales (a committee member). "D'Amato writes with authority, passion, and humor---a winning combination."
