About this book

Language: German

From the Mojave Desert in the USA to the Italian Dolomites, and from South Africa's Cape National Park to the Stirling Ranges of Australia, Wildblumen: 50 Spektakuläre Blütenlandschaften der Welt showcases the most spectacular displays of wild blooms on the planet. Each site account begins with a locator map and info panel detailing timing, key species, and such-like. This is followed by an informative and readable account by the author (who has personally visited nearly all of the sites covered) accompanied by a handful of stunning images of each location showing the displays of flowers. In addition information on the conservation status of the locations is covered in Wildblumen: 50 Spektakuläre Blütenlandschaften der Welt.

Many people travel widely in search of spectacular displays of flowers, but are guided only by word-of-mouth information, or by what organised tours are available. Wildblumen: 50 Spektakuläre Blütenlandschaften der Welt sets out to rectify this gap. However, it aims to be much more: the most 'flowery' places in the world are exceptionally spectacular at their best, and Wildblumen: 50 Spektakuläre Blütenlandschaften der Welt will provide a visual feast for armchair naturalists as well as more active travellers.

Summary in German:

Blumenwiesen hoch in den Alpen, leuchtende Orchideen auf den Klippen Südportugals, blühende Wüsten in Südafrika – auf der ganzen Welt gibt es Blütenlandschaften, die einmalig sind und durch die Formen- und Farbenvielfalt ihrer Blumen betören.

Wildblumen: 50 Spektakuläre Blütenlandschaften zeigt die schönsten mit Wildblumen bewachsenen Plätze in der ganzen Welt. Neben botanischen Hotspots in Europa führen die Autoren durch faszinierende Landschaften in Afrika, Nord- und Südamerika, Asien und Australien. Mehr als 50 spannende Reisedestinationen für Pflanzenfreunde werden vorgestellt: Fantastische Bilder geben einen ersten Einblick, und die Landschaftsporträts werden durch Informationen zum naturgeschichtlichen Hintergrund der Attraktionen, zur besten Reisezeit und zum Schutzstatus ergänzt.
