A British Flora

Aaron's Beard to Yellow-wort

A lost classic, now back in print in stunning livery, championed by Lewis-Stempel, our 'finest living nature writer'. A British Flora introduces all Britain's flowers and plants - of field, hedgerow and garden, both rare and common. Each one is listed by family and then with their Latin, common and also various regional names – with a discussion of their magical, mythical, culinary religious and medicinal properties + literary and historical connections.
Scattered throughout the book are medieval woodcuts, rhymes, proverbs and potions.
An essential reference and a beautiful gift.
