HOW TO DISTINGUISH THEM. 



BY MARGAKET PLUES, 



Author of "Eambles in Search of Ferns," "Eanibles in Search of Mosses. 1 ' 



" Just such a book as should be placed in the hands of the young, yet it is 

 just such a. book as the young of larger growth will read with pleasure." — 

 Journal of Horticulture and Cottage Gardener. 



"Whoever rambles, this coming Spring, thro' 'meadows green or upland 

 lawn,' in search of Wild Flowers, will be much the wiser, and probably much 

 the happier, for having taken with them the charming bouquet of flowers, poesy, 

 and scientific lore so elegantly culled by Miss Flues." — Geologist. 



'•This is one of the best botanical introductions we have met with — a de- 

 scription in simple, intelligent English, of most British species of flowering 

 plants; the coloured plates assist the eye with' accurate delineations." — 

 Guardian. 



" This book appears to us the beau ideal of what an attractive aid to the 

 science should be — one adapted to the spirit of those who wander over hill and 

 dale, and moorland, gathering their living growths." — Parthenon. 



" As a thoroughly popular exposition of the more important plants of our 

 native flora, we heartily recommend the book to the good will of our readers."
