TIPS for Writing your Botany ABC Book Entries


》Tell your reader facts about the plant that everyone should know

Tell your reader some history, care advice, the plant's Latin name, and/or zone in which it thrives.
    What is its main use? Medicinal?  Ornamental?  Symbolic?  Nutritional?

Tell your reader something VERY interesting and/or surprising and/or little known.

You must include a great illustration. Be sure to wrap your text.

Hold your reader's attention with LAGNIAPPE. You might weave in a quote, folklore, 
    a legend, a song, old wives' tale, urban myth, or an anecdote.
