Bobby J. Ward, the foremost authority on Raulston's life, offers a portrait of the legendary figure that will captivate general readers, amateur gardeners, and horticulturists alike.Chlorophyll in His Veins chronicles Raulston's life from his Oklahoma boyhood, through his horticultural education, army service in Vietnam, research and teaching, and experiences as a gay man. It also includes his greatest achievements: the establishment of the arboretum at North Carolina State University in Raleigh (now bearing his name), the creation of a free plant distribution system for the nursery industry, and the mentorship of some of today's most prominent horticulturists.
