An essential handbook for aroid researchers, collectors, botanists, and growers, updated and expanded in this third edition. This third edition of the best-selling book by Deni Bown is fully updated and revised and includes new taxa and advances in research to ensure that Aroids: Plants of the Arum Family continues to be the go-to book for aroid enthusiasts. Since the first edition of Aroids: Plants of the Arum Family was published in 1988, many new genera and over one thousand additional species have been discovered by botanists globally. This expansion of knowledge, made possible through the application of technological advances, has stimulated further interest in the plant family both within the scientific community and in the general public. One of the most famous aroids, the titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum), known for its gigantic size and stench of rotting flesh at the blooming stage, has become a botanical superstar!
