Kew: the Apothecary's Garden The Science and Mythology of Medicinal Plants by Emma Wayland, published by Welbeck Publishing Group Limited in 2025.

For centuries we have harnessed the ancient wisdom of botanical healing, with plants used for a multitude of remedies that nurture both body and soul. Kew: The Apothecary's Garden is a fascinating exploration of nature's pharmacy and the healing power of plants, from soothing hops, chamomile and valerian, and invigorating guarana, maca and ginseng, to the infection-fighting turmeric and tea tree and the immunity-boosting turkey tail mushroom. Herbal remedies, natural tinctures, and the historical and botanical background of plants are revealed through expert text and beautiful illustrations from the renowned Kew archive.

A lovely addition to your coffee table or bookshelf, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves gardening.
