Descriere

It's often imagined that rarity is special. We seek out uncommon plants or birds to tick them off our lists, but most of us overlook the extraordinary splendour of the species we encounter daily in the natural world. It's these species - the most successful plants - that are truly interesting. In this book, Ken Thompson sets out to chart Britain's fifty-two most common wild plants and to explain the secrets of their success.
