Flowers of Palestine

Wild Flowers of Palestine was originally published around 1870 in three editions in English, French, and German. It contained fifty-four plates printed in colour, after drawings and paintings by a Swiss missionary, Hanna Zeller, then resident in Nazareth, Palestine.

In this edition the English text is also translated into Arabic along with the popular names of the flowers. The book is introduced by Palestine’s most famous poet, Mahmoud Darwish.
