These details are designed to aid in tentative plant identification in the field.

The book includes high-quality, original photos of all the plants in their natural habitat, taken by the author at various locations across India. The images are distinguishable and of exceptional quality. A comprehensive list of Ayurvedic/Hindi names is also provided for the convenience of the readers.
