LOUDON'S ENCYCLOP/EDIA OF PLANTS. 

 New Edition, corrected to the Present Time, by Mrs. 

 Loudon ; assisted by George Don, F.L.S., and David Wooster, 

 late Curator of the Ipswich Museum. 



%• This Edition contains nearly 250 additional pages, and 

 above 2000 new Illustrations, without addition to the price. 



Included in the above, and to be had separately, price 21s. 



SUPPLEMENT: Comprising all Plants originated 



in or introduced into Britain between March 1810 and March 

 1865; with a new General Index to the whole Work, and above 

 2000 new Woodcuts. 



u The first edition of this celebrated work, which is incontest- 

 ably of the greatest utility to gardeners, and, indeed, to all who 

 bave not access to great libraries, consisted of 1159 pages; the 

 latest in our possession filled 1329 pages ; that now brought before 

 the public occupies no fewer than 1574, forming a solid, massive 

 volume of small print, comparable to nothing so well as to a 

 dictionary. The great recommendation of the work has always 

 been its woodcuts; which, although only miniatures, were never- 

 theless drawn by Mr. Sowerby with such happy art, and so skil- 

 fully engraved by Brans ton, that the plants could always be 

 recognised, even by those little acquainted with the vegetable 

 kingdom. The continuation in the form of supplements is 

 executed in a manner more than worthy of the original, and 

 brings down the subject to the latest ipo-siblc moment?..... How- 

 many figures the work contains we are unable to ascertain, but 

 we estimate the number of plants actually represented by good 

 woodcuts as amounting to something more than nine thousand!"-—
