Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands. Although only 45 square miles in area, it has a wealth of natural habitats and many wild flower species. This book is an introduction to these plants. It covers over 120 of the most interesting of them, including many Jersey specialities. The author, a professional botanist, describes the history, uses and folklore of these plants with special reference to Jersey where appropriate. There is at least one colour photograph for each species. The book’s small size makes it perfect to carry in a pocket or rucksack whilst exploring this beautiful and varied island.
