Publisher's Synopsis
Providing a field-guide to the flowers which grow on the mountain slopes of Europe, this book also aims to aid an appreciation of their beauty and an understanding of the need for their conservation. Identification can be achieved by matching the colour of a flower to the corresponding colour section of the book. Once the specimen has been located, the pictograms which accompany the plates enable readers to discover at a glance other interesting facts about the flower. Alphabetical indexes of the Latin and vernacular names are included.
