    I want to improve my knowledge of UK wild plants and such and so was wondering if there where any reference books or field guides you could recommend? I would prefer a more comprehensive book rather than one that just deals with flower colour:wink:

    Books which I'm thinking of getting so far:
    New Flora of the British Isles

    The Wild Flower Key

    and a selection of the field studies council guides
