Wild Flowers of Britain and Ireland : A photographic identification guide to over 600 species

Paperback replacement of the original 2005 hardback edition and subsequent 1st paperback edition in 2009, both now out of print.

Usefully arranged for the non-specialist by flower colour, with detailed photographs and locational shots showing the plants in their natural habitats.

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 colour 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.
