A celebration of Christmastime at Kew Gardens.
Christmas is a special festival, marked around the world each December. It is a time of year that Kew Gardens enjoys celebrating. One striking aspect of Christmas is the role played by plants, mammals, and birds--from the Christmas tree and vibrant evergreens used to decorate our homes to the reindeer and robins that are such an endearing part of the Christmas story. The Kew Gardens Christmas Book is a beautifully illustrated celebration of the plants and animals central to Christmas. Jenny Linford, author of the highly successful The Kew Gardens Cookbook, weaves together history, folklore, botany, and stories about Kew, as well as a selection of delicious plant and fungi-based Christmas recipes. From the history of the Christmas tree to the intriguing story of frankincense, the book is filled with fascinating festive facts. In short, it's the perfect Christmas present.Author Biography
