Wild Flowers of Britain and Ireland In Association with Plant Life: A Photographic Field Guide to Over 600 Species: In Association with Natural England

by SarahCuttle (Author), RaeSpencerJones (Author)

Synopsis

Wild Flowers is a unique photographic field guide that is aimed at the plant lover, and not necessarily those with specific botanical knowledge. The close-up photographs allow you to examine each plant in detail - so you will know your English from your Spanish bluebell - and because it is done by color instead of name, it is much easier to navigate. Full of fascinating information, including where and when you will find the flowers, their characteristics, and anecdotes on their historical background with their medicinal and culinary uses. You don't even need to go out into the field to enjoy these beautiful and sometimes elusive flowers.
