Australia’s flora has for many years been well known to botanists for its richness of colour, diversity of form and sheer number of species. This book is both a tribute to that beauty and a plea to preserve it.

The glory of Australian wildflowers has been captured in this book by seven people, all of them authorities on plant life and accomplished photographers.  They have chosen a variety of the most interesting and colourful wildflowers and have written a detailed text and captions on the flowers’ habits and habitats.  The result is an informative guide covering the outback and all States except Queensland. The book, with more than 300 colour illustrations, should be invaluable in helping the enthusiast to locate man types of wildflowers.
