A sumptuous botanical treat, a beautiful reference book celebrating British wildflowers by this award-winning garden writer. With 500 of our most beautiful wildflowers included, the informative text describes the plants, their habitats, the folklore and local history surrounding them and the stories of their common names etc. There is glorious landscape photography by Jonathan Buckley throughout, plus one of his stunning plant portraits accompanying each entry. Sarah Raven will be presenting a BBC2 series on the subject in the autumn.
