A rather ambiguous message about indigenous vs introduced species and building on the floodplain, etc. - teaching the controversy, as they say, I suppose. ( ) A description of the Finke River area of Australia -- how hot and dry it is -- and unchanging. But how some settlers introduced a plant with beautiful red seed pods called rosy dock. An unusual rain storm occurs, causing massive flooding, after which the desert suddenly bloomed for a short period, revealing the spread of rosy dock "like a great red blanket" over the desert. Notes on the last page talk about the introduction of alien plants and their spread. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
