Collecting and Preserving Plants. 



\ 



By STANLEY GUITON. 



Chapters on Collecting and Equipment, Drying, Preserving and 



Arranging, Mounting, &c. Fully Illustrated. 



*« This admirable little book gives something more than mere hints, being really 

 a full instruction book, giving in every necessary detail the means and methods to be 

 adopted in collecting botanical specimens. . . . With such a wealth of information 

 and advice to be had for one shilling, there is no excuse for the miserable examples 

 of pressed plants that one is sometimes required to peruse." — Nature Study.
