This lavish book highlights a selection of the wonderful
illustrations held in the archive of The Florilegium Society at
Sheffield Botanical Gardens. Each illustration included in the book
is accompanied by a plant profile, stating where the plant was
found in the wild and explaining something of its history, uses and
botany. The book also gives an introduction to florilegia dating
from the early herbals, and a history of the Society's Herbarium
and the Gardens themselves. Featuring over 100 colour illustrations
and 67 plant profiles, it is a book for everyone to enjoy, whatever
the season. The Botanical Gardens are in the heart of the City of
Sheffield and are a much-loved venue enjoyed both by the people of
Sheffield and visitors to the City. This book has been written by
the Society's founding chair Valerie Oxley. Valerie developed the
diploma in Botanical Illustration with colleagues at the University
of Sheffield.
