About this product

Product Information

This wild flower identification guide was first published in 1981 and is still widely accepted as the best of its kind for its combination of meticulous illustrations and the use of keys to aid recognition. For this new edition the Latin names have been revised in accordance with the current classification system. It is now published with the recommendation of the Botanical Society of Great Britain as the ideal book for the serious student of British and north-west European wild plants, providing a bridge between picture identification guides and the non-illustrated academic floras.

    Trustworthy Field Guide

    If you are interested in wildflowers and want to identify them, then a good field guide is essential and there are many out there. My first was the excellent Collins field guide "The Wildflowers of Britain and Northern Europe." by Fitter, Fitter and Blamey and it is still an excellent field guide The Wildflower Key is as good, or even better, as in addition to illustrations and descriptions, it has a series of keys to the various plant families; so if you have, for instance, a plant that has daisy-like flowers, you should be able to key it out to species, using the key to the daisy family. Keys can be daunting for real beginners, but are worth persevering with, as they usually lead to less misidentifications; which is always a risk, when identifying a plant from an illustration ...

  • Most critical review

    Good illustrations, but tricky to use the key.

    On the plus side the illustrations and accompanying diagrams are very good in this book. On the minus side I found the key difficult to use. The text says "Keying out is fun (like solving a puzzle!)". Hmmm.

  • Inspiring but unless you are an ecologist / botanist you must put work in to reap rewards

    This book is not for the faint-hearted beginner nor for those with some knowledge but not botanically trained UNLESS you are prepared to learn and understand the abbreviated terminology. If you do, this is a great book with excellent detailed colour drawings that you can take with you on walks, and you can cheat using the index to a certain extent. NB a jewellers lens or magnifying glass is ESSENTIAL to be able to identify most plants using this book. Order when you order the book.

  • Well wrapped for field work use.

    Probably the only book with a great key to identifying any wild plants you find. Obviously written by an expert in their field.

  • Rather heavy, but contains all you need to identify wild flowers

    It clearly identifies wild flowers, and separates different species clearly. The key itself is very difficult to follow, unless you have good botanical knowledge.
