- This supplement to Flowers of the Himalaya (Oxford, 1984) covers species that were not included in the previous book, with much new photographic material that has since become available.

In all, 584 species are described and illustrated in color. In conjunction with the previous volume, which covered more than a thousand species, this supplement provides the most comprehensive field guide available for the plants of the Himalayan region.
