List of Flowers — Classified According to Their Habitats and Habits
The following list of wild flowers, classified according to their habits and principal habitats, will assist the student in his attempts to identify unknown species. A general acquaintance with the chief distinguishing features of the orders, or, failing this, a frequent reference to these features as given in Chapter I, will be a valuable help; and, the order once determined, the few particulars added to each name will generally narrow the search down to one or two species, leaving the final decision to the more detailed description given in the text.
The first number given after each name is the height, or, in the case of climbing and trailing species, the length of the plant; and this is followed by the colour and diameter, of the flower, or, in the case of the Dipsaceæ, Compositæ, and some other plants in which the flowers are densely clustered, the diameter of the cluster or head.
Abbreviations are used as follows:—
W. = white
Y. = yellow
G. = green
R. = red
P. = pink
C. = crimson
V. = violet
Bl. = blue
Br. = brown
Pu. = purple
Cr. = cream
Li. = lilac
Ro. = rose
O. = orange
Sc. = scarlet p. = pale d. = dark or deep.
A combination of two of the above denotes an intermediate colour. Thus—G.Y. denotes a greenish yellow; Pu. Br., a purple-brown, &c.
