Flower Identification Guide?

lucy_lemon

Hi!

I hope I'm posting in the right forum

I went on a foraging walk last summer, and one of the people on the walk had a great book for wild flower/plant identification, sorted by colour of the flowers. I really wanted it at the time, but forgot to write down the title and author, thinking I would remember it. Surprisingly, I then forgot all about it.

Does anyone have any idea about what book this might have been? It looked like a fairly new book. Or any recommendations for similar books?

Thank you all in advance!

This might be it:

I have one of her older books and it's really good - I've just realised I've probably had it for 25years :eek: but it's still going strong!

This is my fav book:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wild-Flowers-Readers-Digest-Britain/dp/027644213X/ref=sr_1_27?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1365525074&sr=1-27&keywords=wild+flowers

It's organised by flower colour and number of petals, makes IDing them so much easier!!

i find these three great:

field guide to the wild flowers of britain and northern europe
published by kingfisher - written by david sutton

wild flowers of britain
published by pan books - written by roger phillips

pocket guide to wild flowers of britain and northern europe
published by larousse - written by david sutton
(this one is small enough to fit in the pocket so great for taking on walks)
