Do you love wandering around you garden looking at your trees, bushes, plants and wonder what use they might have? Of course, the turnips, runner beans et cetera on your vegetable patch you know that they are good for you. But what about marigolds, dandelions, marsh mallow, acorns, pine needles? Yes, they are all edible one way or another. And going for a ramble in the Countryside? There are many wild plants, shrubs and trees that have some part that is edible. But be careful and know exactly what it is you are picking. There are two umbiliferae that you need to be aware of. Cow parsley is edible but the plant is very similar in appearance to Hemlock, which if ingested can kill you. Also, do you know which plants contain ingredients that can be made into health boosters or medicine? A surprising number, but not all of these are edible. Many plants are toxic to humans, although some contain ingredients which can be made into medicines. This book surveys over 600 plant species which were compiled into a comprehensive data-base, from which tables were constructed in the book for easy reference. Common names are given against their Botanical names. Flowers were grouped by their petal numbers. The use of each plant was recorded: is it edible, does it have health benefits, is it toxic? A very useful compendium of plant species for all plant lovers. The book is illustrated with numerous colour images of various flowers and plants.
