Book Description
Excerpt from A Synopsis of the British Flora: Arranged According to the Natural Orders; Containing Vasculares, or Flowering Plants Many genera appear now, for the first time, in an English Flora, and to some it may seem that this is the reverse of an improvement. Undoubtedly, if the British Flora is considered without reference to other countries, a less minute subdivision of some orders might suffice; but when it is viewed, not as an isolated Flora, but as a small fragment of the vegetation of the world, such an Opinion will, probably, be changed. Besides, our daily experience shows us that excessive analysis is far prefer able to excessive synthesis, especially for the purposes of students; the former leads to no other inconvenience, than that of increasing the degree of investigation which plants must receive to be understood: the latter has a constant tendency to render investigation superficial, and characters confused. Upon the niceties by which the genera of many orders, such as Gramineae and Orchideae, are distin guished, some of the most curious parts of Botany will be found to depend.
