Gardening & Environment Education & Reference Science & Nature
Plants of Tropical North Queensland by John Beasley is a compact 2006 field guide that slips easily into a day-pack while you explore the Daintree, Atherton Tablelands or Cape York. Its 192 pages spotlight over 400 trees, shrubs and vines that make Australia’s far-north rainforests so wildly colourful yet hard to name.
Every profile pairs crisp photos with clear notes on habitat, flowering time and traditional uses, turning casual walks into instant botany lessons. Beasley’s friendly tone welcomes newcomers, while quick keys and a visual glossary keep seasoned naturalists moving.
This illustrated paperback carries a neat owner inscription on the inside cover and just a touch of foxing, plus one page of discreet underlining—small reminders that it has already helped a fellow plant-lover in the field. Otherwise the book is solid, square and ready for the next trail.
Ideal for travellers, students or eco-gift hunters, this Footloose Publications classic is the one locals reach for when someone asks “what’s that tree?”
