BRITISH WILD FLOWERS.

By MRS. LOUDON.

With three Coloured Plates in each Number. Demy 4to.

This Work will only include those British Plants which are at once common and ornamental, as it is intended principally for the use of Ladies taking country walks, who may wish to know the names of Flowers they meet with in the fields and hedgerows, and some particulars respecting them. As the work is to be of quite a popular character, the English names of the plants will be made the most prominent; but, in order to render it as generally useful as possible, especially to young persons, the most striking botanical characteristics of each plant will be explained in such a manner as to be perfectly comprehensible to every reader.

The form of the work will be that of the "Ladies' Flower Garden," and it is intended to comprise the whole in one thick volume of about twenty Numbere. London: William Smith, 113, Fleet Street.
