Hi folks
I received" CARNIVOROUS PLANTS of the United States and Canada 2nd edition" this week and it is a great reference book. Unlike "Savage Garden" that deals largely in cultivation of plants, Schnell delves into history, distribution, and discription of plants plus has great pictures. In my humble opinion, it is much better then his 1st edition, going into much greater detail. It is a harder read then Savage Garden( I had to use the glossary many times) but is well worth the effort. I strongly suggest anyone interested in Carnivorous plants from the U.S. and Canada to buy this book. Jack
