As a companion anthology to Flora Curiosa, Botanica Delira collects 21 short stories of botanical wonders and horrors, strange plants that delight and sometimes kill. These imaginative flowers and trees (and even one cactus) are a literary outgrowth of newspaper "wonder stories" that purported to describe rare natural marvels. To illustrate this "nature fakery," ten brief newspaper and magazine stories are included, showing the variety of early botanical literary hoaxes, from man-eating plants to electric trees.
