Find out more
To find out more about British flora, particularly woodlands and forests, visit the website of The-Tree.org.uk run by Anna Fraser at http://www.the-tree.org.uk/. Linked from the website's homepage is a Woodland Flowers section which includes a description of nearly 100 species. Each entry includes a small picture, the scientific name, botanic family and habitat.
Can you help?
I have tried my best to identify the flowers correctly, but I am not an expert on wild flowers. If you think I have wrongly identified any of the specimens, please let me (John Ball) know by e-mail via my Contact Page and I will rectify the error(s).
