Lizabeth Leech trained and worked as a botanist before becoming a well-respected botanical artist and teacher. She is a founder member and current Chair of the Hampton Court Palace Florilegium, as well as an active member of the Institute of Analytical Plant Illustrators and the American Society of Botanical Artists.
There is always something new to learn, in this book Liz helps us
to look with understanding and then look again from a different
angle to delve deeper into the story of the plant. The book is
beautifully illustrated by Liz herself along with members of the
Hampton Court Palace Florilegium Society, these images give the
reader a good insight into how an informative botanical
illustration should be set out to create a good design, as well as
at the same time conveying detailed botanical information.

This is not a botany textbook! Instead, by using copious diagrams
and drawing on her knowledge as a botanist, Liz Leech explains how
to look at plants and dissect flowers in order to make informed and
accurate drawings.
