Around the world with the Carnivorous Plants





Chiara di Biase, in 2005, made this CD for AIPC; it's a trip around the world in order to have a first contact with the Carnivorous Plants. The carnivorous plants and their diversity and peculiarity, are explained in a very simple and clear language, suitable for everybody, including the less expert ones in botanic or cultivation. Some cultivation note and wonderful pictures of our member's plants, complete a passionate narration that help to discredit many false beliefs and remove most of doubts among people who doesn't know this really special world.
