See all formats and editions

Planned in five volumes, this new, critical Flora provides a definitive account of the native species, naturalised species, frequent garden escapes and casuals found in the British Isles.

Full keys and descriptions should enable the user to name all plants occurring in the wild, plus some ornamental trees and shrubs.

For the first time detailed accounts of all the large apomictic genera are given and many infraspecific variants included.

Each species entry begins with the accepted latin name, synonyms and the common English name.

A detailed description follows, with separate descriptions being given for infraspecific taxa.

Information on status, ecology and distribution is also included.

Clear black and white line drawings illustrate an extensive glossary and also illuminate the diagnostic features of a number of groups of plants.
