This is not just a story of the discovery and subsequent cultivation of Victoria regis (now called Victoria amazonica) in England, but is also a great introduction to the development of botanical science and its key players during the Victorian period. The author’s writing stile is both easy to read and compelling making this book very hard to put down.
