New Releases by CHRISTOPHER GREY

In addition to the true poppies of the genus Papaver, the other genera in the poppy family are featured in this profusely illustrated book, including favorites such as Eschscholzia, the California poppy, and Meconopsis, the fabled blue Himalayan poppy.

Exceptionnel inventaire de la richesse de notre environnement végétal naturel, la Flore d''Europe occidentale est aussi, grâce a ses nombreuses illustrations, une œuvre d''art d''une délicatesse et d''une précision extrêmes. Elle constitue une synthèse parfaite entre la science et le talent de deux botanistes britanniques de renom auxquels les meilleurs scientifiques internationaux ont apporté leur caution. Ouvrage de référence indispensable pour tous ceux qui se passionnent déjà pour les plantes, elle suscitera sans nul doute de nouvelles vocations. Ainsi contribuera-t-elle, nous l''espérons, à la sauvegarde de ce patrimoine irremplaçable mais si menacé qu''est notre flore.

Beschrijving van 2400 plantesoorten uit Noordwest Europa.

This guide in this series of botanical monographs aims to provide a comprehensive account of the 19 species of the genus cyclamen. The genus cyclamen comprises of a group of very distinct species native to parts of Europe and western Asia, as well as North Africa. It belongs to the primrose family, the primulaceae, and although the flowers bear some resemblance to other genera in the family, especially dodecatheon and soldanella, cyclamen has no obvious affinities and holds a rather isolated position.

This volume focuses on the family Violaceae. They are annual or perennial herbs, shrubs or small trees and contains about 22 genera and some 900 species and confines mainly to the old New world tropics and sub tropics, however the genus Viola is predominantly temperate in distribution.

This text gives an account of the 110 species that occur in Africa, and includes a key to these species.
