Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from According to Season, Talks About the Flowers in the Order of Their Appearance in the Woods and Fields
If we do not happen ourselves to be blessed with a natural turn for observation, a little com panionship with one of these more foi'unate be ings will persuade us, I think, that the tabit is one which it would be both possible and desirable to cultivate. It had never occurred to me, for ex ample, that it would be worth while to look for wild ?owers on Fifth Avenue, until a certain morning when a keen-eyed botanical companion stooped and plucked from an earth-hlled Chink in its pavement, a little blossom which had found its way hither from some country lane. Since then I have tried to keep my wits about me even on that highway of the Philistines.
