Hundreds of plant species with specialised appendices on edible plants, herbs, plants used in decoration and graphic design. Inspirational, royalty-free illustrations for designers, artists, botanists, and gardeners. This extraordinary collection of engravings provides designers and commercial artists with a magnificent sourcebook of Victorian-era plant images - all royalty-free.
