Britain's Rare Flowers

Peter Marren

Many of our rarest wildflowers such as Starfruit, Plymouth Pear & Lady's Slipper Orchid are the subject of intense conservation measures & recovery plans designed to prevent their extinction & to build up their numbers wherever possible. There has never before been a reference dealing with the history of these special plants & an account of why they became rare in the first place. The author looks at their discovery, their habitats & discusses why some have died out completely, the naturalisation of others & the spectacular discovery of new native plants in recent years. Colour artwork & photographs, line drawings, 350pp, 2001 2nd edition
