#143162 | ISBN-10: 0723251754
Revised and expanded edition of this essential guide with full keys to more than 1600 wild plants found in Britain and Ireland.

This expanded edition is packed with extra identification tips, innovative features designed to assist beginners and many more illustrations. The text aims to be as useful as possible for those working in conservation by, for example, marking plants as protected or as `Red List' endangered species, and including a compilation of the latest research on ancient woodland indicator plants. The text also includes the most up-to-date keys for certain plant groups, written especially for this book.

Praise for the first edition:
'This book stands out from the crowd of popular wild flower guides: there is nothing else quite like it' Dennis Vickers.
'...a masterpiece of clarity and conciseness, homing in on diagnostic floral and vegetative detail gleaned from years out in the field. For Francis Rose's exceptional range of ecological knowledge grants him special insights from which we can all absorb new information and stimulating ideas.' Plant Talk
