Sinossi
Excerpt from Natural History Object Lessons: A Manual for Teachers; Part I.-Plants and Their Products, Animals and Their Uses; Part II.-Specimen Lessons
The earth is clothed with vegetation. From the burning sands and sweltering, humid valleys of the tropics to the confines of the eternal snows, plants, seemingly interminable in number and variety, luxuriate. Each country, each changing degree of temperature, has its particular plants. The dynasty of the palms, says Linnaeus, reigns in the warm regions of the globe; the tropical zones are inhabited by whole races of trees and Shrubs; a rich crown of plants adorns the plains of southern Europe; troops of green grasses occupy Holland and Denmark; numerous tribes of mosses are settled in Sweden; while the white and grey lichens alone vegetate in cold and frozen Lapland.
We may even recognise a country by the predominance of certain forms of vegetation. Forests of firs and pines transport us at once to northern latitudes, or to the flanks of high mountain ranges; forests of gum-trees and acacia tell us of Australia; the heaths point to South Africa; and the cactus to Mexico.
