Roadside weeds and other oft-overlooked aspects of urban nature offer a captivating glimpse into the intricate global ecologies and emerging new cultures of nature across the world. This remarkable collection of essays delves into the botanical dimensions of urban spaces, encompassing scientific endeavors to unravel the unique dynamics of urban flora as well as the way spontaneous vegetation has inspired artists and writers. The book is organized into five thematic sections: histories and taxonomies, botanizing the asphalt, the art of urban flora, experiments in non-design, and cartographic imaginations. The essays explore developments in cities such as Berlin, London, Lahore, and many others, while also engaging in philosophical reflections on the meaning of urban nature in the context of the purported shift to the Anthropocene.
