PRATT, Anne. The Flowering Plants, Grasses, Sedges, and Ferns, of Great Britain, and their allies the Club Mosses, Pepperworts, and Horsetails. Frederick Warne and Co. [nd, 1870s.]

Six vols bound in three, 8vo. Contemporary half green morocco, marbled boards, spines with gilt raised bands, tools and lettering, marbled endpapers, silk bookmarks, a.e.g.; pp. I: viii, 266; II: viii, 355, [1]; III: x, 410; IV: viii, 328; V: viii, 368; VI: x, 319, [1]; with 314 coloured lithograph plates and one monochrome plate; a little bumping to extremities, a little foxing, plates generally clean, very good.

New edition (first published in 5 volumes in 1855-66 by SPCK, with a 6 volume edition following). Anne Pratt (1806-1893) was probably the most successful female botanist of her time and her Flowering Plants was a major work which did much to interest the general public in the British flora. The illustrations are the author's own work. Being a woman and a self-taught artist she was not taken seriously by the botanical establishment. For instance, Wilfred Blunt suggests that her highly attractive illustrations "no doubt owe a good deal to the artists of the firm of W. Dickes and Co. who redrew them on the stones" (The Art of Botanical Illustration), conveniently ignoring the fact that this speculative criticism could be made of any artist who does not do their own engraving. It is impossible now to see her the drawings and not be impressed by her picturesque flair and compositional sense.

Highly recommend
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
I was skeptical that it would hold up to our aggressive chewer puppy (staffyX) - especially during teething. But it has survived past teething into adult chompers and is still fantastic! Its his favorite outside toy, especially the tags make it fun (and those have been holding up well too). If/when it fails, I'll buy another one.

great design, poor overall quality
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
My dog loves these balls. The "tags" are a great design. The problem I have is the quality as they aren't tough enough. He goes through them pretty quickly tearing off the tags and puncturing the ball. He doesn't get that these actually cost money! Each one also comes with a small pump, which I guess is great for a one time buy?, but man, if you don't own a pump just buy one and keep one. I have no use for several of these cheap pumps. How about offering the pump as an add-on for a dollar or two?

Ummmm🙄 not indestructible!
Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a Aussie doodle ( 1 1/2 yr old) so I decided to get her this one for Christmas and she loved it (she plays soccer with my grandkids-so I thought it would be a perfect gift and the colors are so cool green and yellow) however ..if your dog is like mine, she busted it within two days first tried chewing off the handles so I decided to cut the rest of them off-then proceeded to tear one of the pentagons entirely off and finally completely busted it… which made her very happy, but I was very sad!! If your dog is not a chewer and does not stop until she tears it apart, especially if it has some kind of noise maker which this does not-it’s a great ball and really well made! She loved it from the minute she got it played with it-wouldn’t let us take it away from her! It is made and looks like a real soccer ball. So I will have to keep searching for an indestructible soccer ball🙄😁

My dog loves this.
Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a large Cane Corso who could obviously shred this but, she loves it. This ball is holding up really well. We use it for outside play and she loves batting it around and swinging it from the loops.

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.
