| Summary | Annotation Few weeds have been more successful throughout history than the poppy. Hated by farmers for its stubbornness, the poppy has been a favourite of artists and poets, due to its distinct and brilliant colour, and it has functioned symbolically as everything from a war memorial to an emblem of the exotic cultures of the East. In this book, Andrew Lack explores all the aspects of one of our most familiar flowers, combining biology, history, and culture to paint a bright portrait of this fascinating plant. |
