Rok v ovocnej záhrade + biologická ochrana
Na trh prichádza kniha nestora slovenského ovocinárstva a záhradníctva profesora Ivana Hričovského, jeho dlhoročného vydavateľa a spolupracovníka Borisa Horáka a odborníka na biologickú ochranu Zoltána Tamašeka. Publikácia, ktorá by nemala chýbať v knižnici žiadneho skúseného i menej skúseného záhradkára u nás. Nielenže prináša mnoho praktických rád do záhrady, ale chronologicky upozorňuje na nevyhnutné kroky pri pestovaní ovocných stromov a drobného ovocia a ich ochrane.
Profesor Ivan Hričovský v publikácii pretavil svoje celoživotné vedomosti a skúsenosti do písomnej formy a všetky užitočné informácie veľmi prakticky zoradil do jednotlivých mesiacov roka. Kniha sa tak pre mnohých stala návodom postupu prác pri výsadbe, pestovaní i ochrane jabloní, hrušiek, sliviek a ďalších ovocných stromov, ako aj obľúbeného drobného ovocia. Ivan Hričovský knihu pripravoval po konzultáciach s ďalšími najuznávanejšími slovenskými odborníkmi. Knihu koncipoval so zameraním, aby v nej čitatelia mohli nájsť nepreberné množstvo cenných rád pre prácu v ovocnom sade či v záhrade.
Profesor Hričovský desiatky rokov na každom svojom stretnutí so záhradkármi prezentoval jednotlivé činnosti, ktoré opisuje v knihe. Mnohí záhradkári od týchto stretnutí dodržiavajú uvedený postup prác v chronologickom poradí, ako im odporúčajú autori v knihe a aj vďaka tejto publikácii nezabudnú na žiaden dôležitý pestovateľský krok v ovocnej záhrade počas celého roka.
Pri stovkách stretnutí so záhradkármi Ivan Hričovský dostal mnoho otázok na tému biologickej ochrany. Preto si prizval do autorského kolektívu uznávaného odborníka v tejto oblasti Ing. Zoltána Tamašeka. Ten knihu doplnil o mnoho praktických rád súvisiacich s touto problematikou. Z. Tamašek, takisto v chronologickom poradí, rozšíril publikáciu o veľmi cenné informácie pre každého záhradkára, ktorý nechce na svojich stromoch a kríkoch robiť chemickú ochranu.
Toto najnovšie vydanie sme rozšírili aj o desiatky praktických rád z najznámejšieho a najväčšieho slovenského záhradkárskeho profilu na Facebooku Rady.do.zahrady.profesor.Hricovsky. V polovici roku 2025 má tento profil už vyše 162 000 sledovateľov, ktorí sa denno-denne tešia na nové a nové praktické rady. Profesor Hričovský sa v nich počas svojho života venoval všetkým oblastiam záhradkárskeho života - témam, ktoré zaujímajú každého záhradkára u nás. Boris Horák spolu so svojími spolupracovníkmi v tom pokračuje aj po jeho odchode na večný odpočinok.
Keďže posledné roky popularita facebookového profilu neustále rastie, rozhodli sme sa aj túto vynovenú knihu doplniť o cenné praktické rady pestovateľov ovocných stromov a kríkov, rozdelené chronologicky do jednotlivých mesiacov kalendárneho roka. Veľmi si prajeme, aby táto kniha bola pre jej čitateľov studnicou návodov a postupov pri pestovaní chutného ovocia vo vlastnej záhradke. Svojím bohatým obsahom je preto maximálne predurčená.

Funga Obscura
An unforgettable visual journey through the kingdom of fungi, both enigmatic and entrancing. Recyclers, creators of soil, enablers of life, and food for many—fungi are as dynamic as they are diverse. And, throughout her career, Alison Pouliot has observed these organisms with a unique vision. As a scientist and photographer, she has led hundreds of forays through the forests of the Americas, Australia, and Europe. In this book, readers can travel along with her on these global explorations through stunning photographs and meditations on the landscape. She says her camera is where fungal lives come most clearly into focus. And like the camera obscura, this book, Funga Obscura, captures brief mycological moments and unforgettable fungus microcosms. The word funga refers to the fungi of a region, and Pouliot’s photography spans continents. We see a parade of violet webcap mushrooms, spotted in the understory of a Pacific Northwest forest; brilliantly blue pixie’s parasols in Australia; an Italian alpine lichen, looking for all the world like a treasure map; and a showstopping whitelaced shank, ready to spread its spores in Switzerland. We learn that fungi live almost everywhere, from our lawns to forests and woodlands, from the ocean’s depths to deserts and alpine peaks. Yet, like a web of rootlike mycelium, Funga Obscura goes deeper to investigate how fungi shape landscapes and interact with other organisms, including humans. This journey spans eons, from long ago in evolutionary time, when fungi first emerged from the ocean onto land, to today, when we witness their work all around us. The scenes here challenge our ideas about what fungi are, what they do, and why they matter. In Pouliot’s photographs, you might recognize a few old friends, but many mushrooms will be new acquaintances. Sometimes they make their presence immediately known; at other times, they just provide clues—and trails to follow.

International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Madrid Code)
The latest, updated edition of the essential, authoritative reference for botanical, mycological, and phycological names. The International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, known as “the Code,” is the set of internationally agreed rules and recommendations that govern the naming of these organisms. Scientific naming has deep historical roots. Indeed, the system of naming organisms is one of the first truly global scientific standards. This essential reference originates in Alphonse de Candolle’s 1867 Lois de la nomenclature botanique. This 2025 edition of the Code, the Madrid Code, reflects the decisions made at the Twentieth International Botanical Congress, which met in Madrid, Spain, in July 2024. The congress debated 447 proposals to amend the Code and accepted important new rules, including a mechanism for voluntary registration of plant and algal names, clarifications for naming fossil taxa, the option to reject a new name if it is derogatory to a group of people, and the replacement of an epithet that was considered particularly offensive (revising to afra, afrorum, and afrum).

The Lost Elms: A Love Letter to Our Vanished Trees – and the Fight to Save Them
A Guardian 'Book of the day'Longlisted for the 2025 Highland Book Prize'A captivating book' - Independent'Her enthusiasm is contagious.' - Guardian'A meditation on life, culture and trees.' - FRED PEARCE'Unofficial poet laureate of our woodlands.' - Scotsman________________For millennia,elms shaped our landscape and our folklore;then they started dying. Few young people have seen a mature elm tree. They once covered great swathes of Europe and North America, but Dutch elm disease has since killed hundreds of millions worldwide, forever altering our landscapes. The Lost Elms is a love letter to our nearly vanished elms and a rallying cry for their long, slow fight back. It tells the gripping story of the scientists desperately trying to halt the disease's relentless progress, and shares the latest research uncovering the intricate links between elms and other species. Woven throughout is a deeply lyrical look at the tree's central place in our history, mythology, poetry and folklore. Crucially, there is hope. Recent breakthroughs reveal elms to be more resilient than we ever imagined. The Lost Elms shows how the strength of this noble tree can offer positive lessons for the future - lessons which one day might help us save other disappearing species.
Urban Plants
An illuminating account of urban botany in the British Isles – its ecology, history and cultural significance.The walls, pavements, lawns, parks, playing fields, verges and waste ground that make up the built environment of Britain and Ireland are home to an extraordinary array of plant species. Native and non-native species together find ways to endure in often harsh and uncompromising habitats. In Urban Plants, leading botanist Trevor Dines tells the stories of our urban flowers, ferns and conifers: how they arrived, how they survive, and how a select few seize the opportunity to become masters of the streets, thriving in the face of constant upheaval and change.We learn how our villages, towns and cities have changed over time – from Roman Britain to reconstruction after World War II – and the resulting geographical variation that exists in our flora today, such as London Rocket at the Tower of London or the newly evolved York Groundsel recently discovered in a railway station carpark. Trevor also looks to the future and the potential impacts of invasive species, herbicides and climate change, as well as the concept of urban rewilding.Illustrated with around 350 colour photographs, maps and diagrams, as well as text boxes exploring key species and habitats, this is a fascinating deep dive into the biology, ecology and cultural impact of the plants that set up home alongside us.
