oooooh, The Willows is one of my favorite creepy stories, right up there with The Rocking Horse Winner and “Repent, Harliquin!” said the TickTockMan. Sounds like a book I need to buy.

A decent novel with some weird plants in it is “The Ruins”. The movie didn’t do the book justice, I thought. This looks like a cool list of stories, and I’m always curious when cryptobotany articles pop up on the site.

I didn’t even know there was a Conan Doyle story called ‘The American’s Tale’. Obviously my collection of his stories is not as complete as I thought.

As it isn’t in this book I also recommend Manly Wade Wellman’s “Come Into My Parlor”? as an excellent botanical nightmare generator.
