The Genus Arisaema by Guy and Liliane Gusman is the go-to monograph for botanists, serious gardeners, and nature lovers fascinated by cobra lilies and their relatives. This hefty 438-page hardcover, complete with dust jacket and hundreds of detailed illustrations, covers every recognized species and cultivar in straightforward English.

Inside, crisp photos, line drawings, and distribution maps make identification easy while keeping technical jargon to a minimum. The book doubles as a field reference and a coffee-table conversation starter, pairing science with visual appeal for both young adults and seasoned plant enthusiasts.

This used copy is clean and tight—no handwriting, dog-ears, or smoke odors—though the front and rear endpapers show light foxing that never reaches the text block. A solid, shelf-ready edition for anyone building a botanical library.

Collectors appreciate that first-printing Arisaema references are scarce; grabbing an illustrated, jacketed copy in good condition is a practical win for gardeners, students, and professionals alike.
