Description
- The great plant sage about immigrant plants.
- Hidden benefits of supposed pests.
- With psychological and philosophical aspects.
Neophytes are often seen as the evil invaders in our nature. They displace native plants and are of no use to the animal world, it is said. But is that really true? In this book, Wolf-Dieter Storl shows how we can make friends with immigrant plants. He explains in a well-founded and knowledgeable way that plants such as giant hogweed, Canadian goldenrod or Indian balsam are by no means a problem. In the countries they come from, many of them are even considered valuable food, useful and medicinal plants and some are even considered sacred plants that are used shamanically or ritually. This book allows us to look at »migratory« plants from a fresh perspective, understand them and use them beneficially.
