Wildflowers Of Ireland: A Personal Record Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Ireland's countryside teems with wild flowers, each an intrinsic part of the landscape and of an ecosystem that supports birds, insects, and other wildlife. This beautifully presented book explores this often-overlooked part of Ireland's natural heritage. Descriptions and photographs of plants are embellished with herbal and literary references and related Irish folklore. Over 400 commonly found wildflowers are described but some not-so-common and even rare species are also included. With beautiful photographs, this book creates a new awareness and a wider picture of the world of wildflowers in Ireland without being over scientific or bogged down by terminology.

Zoe Devlin's Wildflowers of Ireland: A Personal Record is a treasure. A classy publication with heavy paper, vivid color photos, readable print. More important, the photos are stunning in their detail, and the number of flowers represented is outstanding. A helpful, readable text accompanies each photograph. The book is a superb guide to the wildflowers of Ireland. I collect my own photos of wildflowers of the West of Ireland, and this book, along with Devlin's Website, helps me to locate particular flowers (when and where they are blooming)and is invaluable for identifying those I don't know.
