About The Book
Practical Plant Identification by Cullen is a comprehensive and user-friendly guide to identifying flowering plant families in the northern hemisphere, whether they are wild or cultivated. Designed with practical applications in mind, this book includes detailed plant structure terminology and offers easy-to-follow keys for identifying 318 flowering plant families. The text is structured to allow users to work the keys backwards, ensuring accurate identification and verification.
The guide also features descriptions of plant families and lists the genera within each family, offering further identification tools at both the generic and specific levels. This updated version retains the concise, accessible approach from the author’s previous bestselling work, The Identification of Flowering Plant Families, while incorporating modern DNA-based insights into plant family definitions.
Aimed primarily at students of botany and horticulture, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in plant taxonomy, offering a clear pathway from traditional plant identification methods to the more recent approaches based on molecular data. Whether you're a beginner or a more advanced learner, Cullen’s practical guide is a perfect introduction to the world of plant identification.
