NATURE’S GARDEN. An Aid to Knowledge of Our Wild Flowers and Their Insect Visitors. 24 colored plates, and many other illustrations photographed directly from nature. Text by Neltje Blanchan. Large Quarto, size 7-3/4×10-3/8. Cloth. Formerly published at $3.00 net. Our special price, $1.25. Superb color portraits of many familiar flowers in their living tints, and no less beautiful pictures in black and white of others--each blossom photographed directly from nature--form an unrivaled series. By their aid alone the novice can name the flowers met afield. Intimate life-histories of over five hundred species of wild flowers, written in untechnical, vivid language, emphasize the marvelously interesting and vital relationship existing between these flowers and the special insect to which each is adapted. The flowers are divided into five color groups, because by this arrangement anyone with no knowledge of botany whatever can readily identify the specimens met during a walk. The various popular names by which each species is known, its preferred dwelling-place, months of blooming and geographical distribution follow its description. Lists of berry-bearing and other plants most conspicuous after the flowering season, of such as grow together in different kinds of soil, and finally of family groups arranged by that method of scientific classification adopted by the International Botanical Congress which has now superseded all others, combine to make “Nature’s Garden” an indispensable guide.
