"These were not twiggy herbs but plants with substance, weight, curves, and shadows that impacted the mind like great abstract sculptures. They suggested alien life forms, flying saucers, flesh, intertwined bodies, amorphous beasts, crystalline structures, rock, lava, monoliths."
"They are so unlike the stereotypes of plant forms that, for the inexperienced, attending an annual cactus and succulent show for the first time is like being introduced to an alien world. The terms 'otherworldly', 'out of a science fiction movie', and 'lunar' are regularly applied when describing these plants as well as some of
the landscapes they inhabit. No other group quite compares in the long-term artistic and aesthetic rewards provided from growing these species."
Pachyforms is a complete guide to the selection and cultivation of the increasingly popular group of plants known as caudiciforms and pachycauls, species that develop thick bodies with sculptural forms. In Pachyforms, you will find information that will allow you to grow some of the most impressive plants in the world: baobabs and boojum trees; members of the passionflower family with bodies as large and wide as a witch's cauldron; species in the cucumber family that acquire the form of flying saucers; yams with complex geometric forms; morning glories with gorgeous flowers and egg-shaped weathered bodies...
This new updated edition of Pachyforms is illustrated with
more than 680 color photographs and packed with practical advice, including cultivation notes on more than 180 species.
