English translations of this work exist from another source language, but this specific text has never been translated.
Theophrastus's 'Historia Plantarum' is a work originally written in Greek. The 1483 edition mentioned is a Latin translation of the Greek original. While English translations of the Greek text exist (most notably the Loeb Classical Library edition by Sir Arthur Hort, 1916), there is no evidence of an English translation derived specifically from the Latin text of the 1483 incunabulum. Therefore, this is a first translation from the Latin source.

Theophrastus strips away the myths of the ancient world to observe plants as biological machines driven by heat, humor, and environment. This 1483 incunabulum offers a clear, objective look at how nature transforms wild seeds into cultivated crops.
