Identifying Flowering Plants

Essential skills developed during this Identifying flowering plants course make it ideal for professional development but also for anyone simply fascinated by plants and ecology.

Identifying Flowering Plants, examine specimens and become familiar with the huge variety of flower and leaf forms and the equally huge and often confusing terminology used in the wild flower books and `keys’. You will be given the confidence to use a `flora’ and `keys’ and identify unknown flowering plant species on your own. Emphasis will be on practical skills, with examination and identification taking place mainly in the laboratory but with excursions around the venue to put new found knowledge to the test! This is an excellent background for anyone interested in both wild and garden plants.
