Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sub-Alpine Plants, or Flowers of the Swiss Woods and Meadows
When not otherwise stated, every plant described is believed to be perennial. In the case of a few species short cultural notes are given; while there is a general chapter on the culti vation of Alpine plants.
The heights given in the text refer more especially to the Swiss Alps, though sometimes I have given the approximate altitudinal limits of certain species as observed by myself in other mountain ranges. Naturally in Britain, Scandinavia, etc., most of the Alpine plants common to those countries and Switzerland ?ontish at much lower elevations.
