Reseña del editor:

Pitcher plants include the largest and most beautiful of the world’s carnivorous plants, plants that are viewed with fascination by people of all ages, nationalities and walks of life. Pitcher Plants of the Americas is an informative, visually rich overview of the five genera of pitcher plants that occur in North, Middle, and South America — a group that includes three genera of true pitcher plants (Darlingtonia, Heliamphora, and Sarracenia) and two genera of carnivorous tank bromeliads (Brocchinia and Catopsis).Pitcher Plants . . . is written in clear yet substantive language and contains spectacular photography that provides a comprehenisve visual record of the group. This book will appeal to both general readers and specialists who are interested in the natural history, conservation, and horticulture of the American pitcher plants.
