Book Description
Over a three year period Jane Scott has been collecting native plants in the Margaret River-Augusta area for the Regional Herbarium Project, an initiative of the Western Australian Herbarium. Patricia Negus painted these specimens in meticulous detail in watercolour, after which Jane pressed, lodged, identified and described each plant. The result is this remarkable book that is both a work of art and a detailed botanical reference.

Book Description
This conveniently sized field guide contains vivid colour photographs of 230 of the wildflowers which grow within 75km of Hyden, including Wave Rock, to help identify and name them, and describes another 100 or so that are similar. There is always some native plant in flower, even in summer, so this book describes wildflowers that might be seen any time you are in or around Hyden. This book is designed for those with no knowledge of botany, tourists and locals alike, but who have a curiosity and love of beautiful wildflowers. This book groups the wildflowers by colour rather than by family or genus. Wildflowers of the same colour and similar shape are grouped together, and the key features of each plant are described in simple, clear, non-technical terms. Each plant in the book is given both a common name and a scientific name. The common name is often related to the scientific name, and usually helps to identify the plant.There are two maps showing the places named in the book. Flora roads, where good wildflower displays can be found right along the roadside, are marked on the maps. In addition, places where the wildflowers featured in the book have been found is indicated in a small map alongside the plant, with the names of the nearest places at the edges of the plant's distribution.
