James Dodson Beautiful Madness
Plume 2007 0452288029 / 9780452288027 Paperback Like New
"Paperback, Like New, clean, tight, no spine or cover creases. There is a remainder mark on the bottom page edges. Nonfiction.() A horticultural fanatic’s yearlong journey to the world’s greatest garden spots When James Dodson fell for gardening, he fell hard—so hard that he soon found himself on a whirlwind tour of the globe, feeding his horticultural obsession at gardening shows in London and Philadelphia, smuggling cuttings from the estate of Thomas Jefferson, and eventually hanging off a cliff in the South African rain forest in his quest for new and exotic plant species. Dodson chronicles his year of green-thumb fever in Beautiful Madness, a story rooted in the fertile soil of America’s passion for all things gardening. Dodson’s journey through other people’s gardens includes an encounter with the high rollers who bid top dollar at auctions of rare plants: a meeting with the retired business executive nicknamed the Botticelli of Bulbs: and a weekend with the Mad Man of Kew, ID: mon0000021655"
