an authoritative and comprehensive reference, esp. WRT British wild
plants, that seems lacking in literature (that I could find
anyway).


Clive Stace, New Flora of the British Isles. You should be able to
find a copy in a library near you.


Impressive, and only 26 quid from Amazon.

"bringing the total number of taxa covered to over 4500"

I wonder if there's anything as comprehensive as this for domestic
plants, from the RHS for example.

Anyway, that's on my WishList now

Thanks.
