The Easy Wildflower Guide - Softcover

This is the latest book in a series that already includes the Easy Tree Guide and the Easy Edible Mushroom Guide, like its predecessors it is unique in using a combination of photography and artwork. The photographs show the plants in bloom in their natural habitats while the annotated paintings show details of leaves, seeds, fruit and other key features to assist identification. Over 230 of the commonest wildflowers are covered, with a spread being devoted to each species. Rather than arranging the species in taxonomic order, the book starts with white flowers and moves through the spectrum to end with violet.

Neil Fletcher is the author of a number of wildlife guides, including books on Sussex where he lives. Gill Tomblin is a well known illustrator who also worked on previous books in this series.
