ABOUT THE AUTHOR Charlotte Johnson

He found new species of Chinese evergreens, dracaena, Begonia exotica, Sansevieria of Ceylon and the first white African Violet. His comprehensive illustrated inventories of the world's flora were expensive, though the cost did not seem to discourage aficionados. His trips, the recalled, had their close calls, from unforgiving terrain to tribes who resented his intrusion in New Guinea. He visited the giant lobelias of Mount Kilimanjaro, Azaleas and Rhododendrons of Sikkim and the bamboos of China; where he savored the country's ornamental Horticulture.
