Lila's New York ad exec career may be flourishing, but the rest of her life is wilting - in a big way.

Recently divorced, she is increasingly cynical and can't find meaning in her urban, stressful lifestyle. Until, that is, she stops by the local market and a dashing flowerseller turns her on to the delights of exotic flowers.

A fleeting affair and three tropical plants later, Lila is hooked. Her passion takes her to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, in search of the Nine Plants of Desire, an elusive collection that will make all your dreams come true.

Intelligent fluff, this is perfect bedtime reading that will leave you wondering about the mystical power of plants, and the degree to which we have lost touch with our surroundings.
