Soft cover. Zustand: New. 293 pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "Begonia is familiar as a garden plant grown for its beautiful foliage. Indeed there are few other genera that can challenge Begonia in variety of leaf shapes, colour and patterns. It often comes as a surprise to learn that the forests of Borneo are a hot spo…t for begonias with almost 200 named species. They grow in the deeply shaded forest understorey from the lowlands to mountain tops and on all rock types including granite, limestone, sandstone and ultramafic rocks. Readily recognised as a begonia by the very unequal sided leaf, until now it has been difficult if not impossible for naturalists to identify Bornean species. The Guide aims to overcome this and to spur interest in this fascinating genus by providing profuse illustrations, a brief description and information on distribution, habitat and uses, if any. For those who wish to delve deeper, a list of all known Bornean begonias is provided together with a complete compendium of literature pertaining to Bornean begonias. Of the 194 begonias known from Borneo, 134 are illustrated here, the great majority for the first time. All Borneo's begonias are endemic, i.e. are found nowhere else in the world, and rather few are widespread with only a handful crossing political boundaries between Brunei, Kalimantan, Sabah and Sarawak.".

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 308+xi pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "Begonias display an amazing variety of shapes, colours, patterns, and textures in their leaves rarely seen in other groups of plants. Their hallmark is the very asymmetric leaf where one side is much larger than the order.… The beautiful leaves account for their popularity as ornamental plants and their great commercial importance in the horticultural trade. Today over 10,000 kinds of hybrids and cultivars are available. Indeed, while the hybrids are well known, for many people it comes as a surprise to learn that there are wild begonias in Malaysian forests.".

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 531 pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "This book celebrates the fascinating plant diversity of Fraser's Hill's native mountain rain forest, showcasing the beautiful, the bizarre, the conspicuous, and the obscure. Written in an accessible style for the curious re…ader, it features beautiful images of accurately named plants, making the first step in identification an easy one. Famous for its pleasant, cool ambience and lush greenery, Fraser's Hill is unique among hill resorts as the least developed, offering an accessible mountain ecosystem that is world-famous for bird-watching and the old-world charm of its mock-Tudor bungalows, many of which hold heritage status. The long and fascinating history of Fraser's Hill is concisely recounted in the Introduction, which also includes information on climate, forest types, diversity of flora, and draws attention to rare, endemic, and endangered species. Of the nearly 1,500 plant species known from Fraser's Hill, a selection of 221 native and naturalized species, most likely to be spotted along roadsides and forest trails, is illustrated. These include 97 species of herbs, 18 epiphytes, 32 shrubs, 30 climbers, 30 trees, and 14 palms. The species are grouped by their growth form and arranged alphabetically by plant family and scientific name. Knowing scientific names provides access to further information and fosters interest in flora and its rich biodiversity. Appreciating this natural heritage deepens our understanding of its intrinsic value and the need to preserve ecosystems for future generations, protecting endangered species and habitats from extinction.".
