Synopsis

Explore the flora of England and Wales with a meticulous, travel-ready plant guide. This volume presents a carefully copied and arranged compilation by Dawson Turner and Lewis Weston Dillwyn, aiming to aid natural history travellers and researchers. It explains the editors’ choices, acknowledges its inevitable errors, and notes how names and habitats have shifted over time, offering a practical path through a vast natural catalog.

The result is a valuable reference for locating plants, understanding their habits, and appreciating the scope of Britain’s flora.
