Review Quotes: On their own, Wendy Hollender's charming, yet painstakingly precise works of botanical art provide an alluring glimpse into the intricate beauty of the plants and fungi that sustain our bodies, our souls, and our planet. In dialogue with her essays and those by a luminous roster of collaborators, they are a means of revelation.--Todd Forrest, Vice President for Horticulture & Living Collections, New York Botanical Garden
