About this book

The Flora and Vegetation of Shropshire is a remarkable new publication which describes the distribution and ecology of every one of the plants and types of vegetation types found wild in the county. It takes knowledge and understanding of our flora to new levels. The Flora and Vegetation of Shropshire will play an important part in helping us to know and conserve the special character and amazing diversity still present within the Shropshire landscape.

It represents a tremendous amount of effort by the authors and society members and co-operation from the people of Shropshire. As many as 350 000 records have been made by well over 1 000 recorders made since the last account in 1985. Attractively designed and illustrated with species and location photographs and maps, this book aims to make the diversity, abundance and beauty present in the Shropshire flora available to everyone from beginners to experts.
