| Description: | An informative and entertaining look at why plants have been used in magic and what that tells us about people and plants in a post-magic world. Whether foxglove or bird cherry, hawthorn or aspen, rowan or oak, Plant Magic shines a bright new light on many familiar plants and explores their place in supernatural and magical traditions. The book combines botanical analysis with history and anecdote, explaining how the evolution, ecology and geography of plants has influenced their use. |
