Elements of botany, or outlines of the natural history of vegetables, is a 1804 botany textbook by Benjamin Smith Barton, printed in London for J. Johnson and taught to students of plant structure. Its hand-coloured plates are dissected botanical drawings with lettered figures, showing whole flowers, stamens, pistils, buds and leaves arranged in class groups, which suit a designer wanting scientific diagram layouts and labelled specimen sheets.
