Wildflowers of Alabama and Adjoining States

by Blanche E. Dean, James H. Mason, Thomas Joab, et al.

Book Overview

There are perhaps 3,000 species of flowering plants in Alabama, and the geography of the state provides for an impressive diversity--this work records in color photographs and brief but practical descriptions some 400 of the most common, most showy, and most interesting and significant of these species. A glossary, diagrams of flower parts and types, and an index will guide the curious lay person and satisfy the more serious student as well.

Wildflowers of Alabma and Adjoining Sates

This book covers a number of wildflowers throughout Alabama. The book is filled with wonderful color pictures which aid in identification of species in this area. The descriptions are also very informative! It helped me alot on a collection I was putting together for a Botany class. I loved it so much I had to buy a copy for myself!
