'Along with the descriptive letterpress and the more technical classifications at the back for the student, this revised edition portrays over 250 Australian wild flowers in natural colour from paintings by the late Adam Forster.  The plants have been chosen to encompass, as far as possible, the wild flowers most likely to be encountered in each State, but at the same time many of the rarer types are included.'
