1958 TRIGGERPLANTS

Triggerplants was the second of Rica's illustrated nature books. The lack of up-to-date information prompted her to study them and it was the first comprehensive work on trigger plants written in English since 1868. Trigger plants, or Stylidium and Levenhookia, are the wildflowers whose distinctive 'trigger' action is used for pollination purposes.
