    The Witch's Garden describes over fifty of the world's most powerful, harmful, legendary, and storied plants—from the screaming mandrake to calming St John's Wort, to predicting the weather with seaweed, the creation of salves for broken hearts, sore heads, protection from evil spirits, and to even induce immortality. 
     
    Wise women, apothecaries, witches, herbalists: whatever you like to call them, those who cultivate plants for their apparent mystical properties have existed for thousands of years. The Witch's Garden tells the story of our folkloric fascination with these magical specimens, documenting the beliefs and rituals surrounding the natural world. This book beautifully evokes the bewitching nature of mysterious plants.

    Turtles have long captivated the human imagination with their distinctive, often slow-moving nature and hard, protective shells. These fascinating creatures have been around for over 200 million years, making them one of the oldest surviving reptiles. Whether you encounter them in the wild or decide to keep one as a pet, turtles can offer an enriching and fulfilling experience. 
    This guide aims to provide you with comprehensive information to ensure that your turtle lives a long, healthy, and happy life in your care. Turtles may seem like low-maintenance pets at first glance, but they require specific care, attention, and an understanding of their needs. By learning about their biology, behavior, and specific habitat and dietary requirements, you will be better equipped to provide a comfortable and stimulating environment for your turtle. 
    The first step in becoming a responsible turtle owner is recognizing the responsibility that comes with keeping these animals as pets. Turtles can live for several decades, with some species reaching up to 50 years or more in captivity. This long lifespan means that owning a turtle is a commitment, and you must be prepared for the long-term care and attention they require.
