Book excerpt: Plant Families is an easy-to-use, beautifully illustrated guide to the more than seventy core plant families every horticulturist, gardener, or budding botanist needs to know.

Understanding plant families also helps us to make sense of- and better appreciate- the enormous biological diversity of the plant kingdom.
