You use mainly eyes to experience the world around you, just like other people. This atlas of plants in Poland was created with you in mind. Every species is accompanied by a good number of photographs to make it easy for you to recognise it. Over the years, the author of the atlas and its contributing associates have taken many thousand of photos. I have carefully selected from that number those few thousand that will prove to be the biggest help in your floristic professional work or hobby.
