Présentation de l'éditeur :
KtN. This book is intended to furnish botanical classes and beginners generally with an easier introduction to the plants of this country than is theM anual, and one which includes the common cultivated as well as the native species. It is made more concise and simple, 1. by the use of somewhat less technical language; 2. by the omission, as far as possible, of the more recondite and, for the present purpose, less essential characters; and also of most of the obscure, insignificant, or rare plants which students will not be apt to meet with or to examine, or which are quite too difficult for beginners; such as theS edges, most Grasses, and the crowd of Golden Rods, A sters, Sunflowers, and the like, which require very critical study. On the other hand, this small volume is more comprehensive than theM anual, since it comprises the common herbs, shrubs, and trees of theS outhern as well as theN orthern and Middle States, and all which are commonly cultivated or planted, for ornament or use, in fields, gardens, pleasure-grounds, or in house-culture, including even the conservatory plants ordinarily met with. It is very desirable that students should be able to use exotic as well as indigenous plants in analysis ;and a scientilic acquaintance with the plants and flowers most common around us in garden, field, and green-house, and which so largely contribute to our well-being and enjoyment, would seem to be no less important than in the case of our native plants. If it is worth while so largely to assemble around us ornamental and useful trees, plants, and flowers, it is certainly well to know what they are and what they are like. To students in agricultural schools and colleges this kind of knowledge will be especially important.
