The duet of poet and plant photographer, Moore and Sullivan, has produced another book featuring their pursuits of plant life scattered throughout the southeastern United States and as far afield as the Mideast. Poet Diane Marquart Moore observes humanistic elements in the diversity of plant forms from mayapples to the everlasting rose; and Sullivan's trained eye records the color and structure of typical and atypical forms of leaf and flower. A special page derived from drawings delineated by the poet's mother, Dorothy Greenlaw Marquart, in 1926 lends interest to this volume.
