Size: 230 x 300mm / Pages: 207 — About The Plant: Twining from botanical roots through the fields of photography, art, fashion, food, ecology and horticulture, The Plant is a fresh view onto the growing world. A celebration of magnificent, modest, exotic and everyday plants, and the creative enterprises they inspire. The Plant first blossomed as a biannual magazine in 2011, announcing itself as ‘a curious observer of ordinary plants and other greenery.’ Since that first issue, the magazine has commissioned special artist projects, photography portfolios, creative writing and reportage from established and emerging talents around the world. Offering beauty, scent, shade and sweetness, shelter, nourishment and warmth, The Plant is magazine as pleasure garden, promising something unexpected at every turn.
