Wild Flowers of Britain: Over a Thousand Species By Photographic Identification (A Pan Original)

Product Information

Many wildflower guides are organised according to plant families, but this book uses a simpler and easier approach: in the catalogue section, flowers are arranged by colour and then by size, helping you to easily home in on the particular flower that you want to identify. Just study the diagrams and work through the flowcharts to learn 20 of the commonest species of grasses. A particularly appealing feature is the foldout insert which displays at-a-glance illustrations of flowers by colour so you can quickly spot what you’re looking for. Goods will normally be received within 10 days, but please allow up to 30 days in case we are exceptionally busy or if there are other circumstances beyond our control. You're interested in wild flowers, you've found one you can't identify, and you've got a field guide.

Along with a description and coloured illustration, you can discover the plant’s Latin and Gaelic name.

If your species is quite a common and widespread one, you can follow that up with Wild Flower Flowcharts to guide you to the correct species.

People all over the country, from a range of rural and urban areas, shared their personal anecdotes and memories in relation to the cultural dimensions of their wildflowers, making this pick a particularly unique and special read. Big, small and amazingly diverse, they all carry out the same important job: to exchange pollen and produce seeds, so that plants can reproduce. Featuring 40 of the most beautiful flowers from around the world, including the common wildflowers we know and love, as well as the rare and interesting.

This book has been produced in association with the British conservation charity, Plantlife, which aims to save threatened wildflowers, fungi and plants.
