Wild flower identification may seem impossibly hard to those not
familiar with them, but this brilliant new photographic guide aims to
change that forever. With superb photography throughout, including
stunning portraits and close-ups of key features where relevant, and
succinct, no-nonsense text this book will help you identify almost any
wild flower that you may encounter in Britain and Ireland. More than 800
carefully selected species are included in the book, and only extreme
rarities or seldom seen species are excluded. The pages have been
designed to ensure that the photographs are reproduced at a sensible
size and that the text is readable. Key features are highlighted in
tinted boxes throughout the book, and details of confusion species and
look-alikes are given where relevant. Accurate colour maps based on the
national plant-mapping scheme are provided for almost every species.
This handy guide is an essential tool for anyone interested in our wild
flowers.
