Describing Flowers

A fold-out leaflet of 4 double-sided A5 pages colour printed on shiny card. This leaflet presents a formal method of describing wildflowers: general form, inflorescence, flower & fruit and leaves. Floral formulae are explained and there is a basic pictorial glossary. Can be used either as a quick reference in conjunction with a flora, or for taking notes in the field to avoid collecting specimens.
