The Tropics in Full Bloom – Volume 2 takes you down a new path, while keeping the same raw, narrative heartbeat that began this journey. Still hungry for more? This volume opens with the towering giants — trees that show off their diversity and grandeur while quietly serving as guardians, shelters, and life-givers to animals and understory plants alike. Then, in Chapter Five, prepare for a wild ride through the world of bromeliads — those spectacular epiphytic plants that double as water tanks, air traps, and safe havens for tiny frogs. And just when you think the jungle can’t surprise you anymore, orchids enter the scene. Enigmatic, seductive, and strange as hell, these fascinating plants bloom not only with mesmerizing scents but also with wild stories that will leave you blinking. You’ll find over 500 high-resolution photographs , blended with honest commentary and personal reflections — a love letter to the tropical landscape, written for gardeners, designers, plant lovers, and curious souls like you. Needless to say, you’re not done yet. This is the second of a three-volume series. For the best reading experience, this edition is formatted as a Print Replica and is best viewed on tablets, Kindle Fire, or Kindle for PC/Mac.
