Step-by-Step Outdoor Play Structures: Over Twenty Easy-to-Build Projects for Your Patio and Garden (Step-by-step DIY series) - Hardcover

Wild flowers hold a fascination not only for their charm but for their astonishing diversity. Learning to identify them is both challenging and rewarding.
This superbly illustrated guide covers over 1, 200 species to be found throughout Europe, including all those that are most widespread or likely to be encountered. The detailed descriptions of the main species are emphasised by colour photographs, taken in natural habitat, showing typical characters. Many similar additional species are also described, their diagnostic features illustrated with meticulous line drawings.
An extensive introduction offers excellent practical advice on how to interpret plant structures and gives an account of the major types of habitats. A summary of the family groups of wild flowers leads to the keys to the species, and from these the absorbing path to full identification can be followed. Notes on field equipment, a discussion on conservation and a list of some reserves and protected areas of outstanding botanical interest are just some of the other useful sections in the book.
Written by experts, the Field Guide to the Wild Flowers of Britain and Europe will be a source of much sound information, and enjoyment, for enthusiasts of all levels.
