New York State Trees & Wildflowers: A Folding Pocket Guide to Familiar Plants (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781583552971)

New York State stretches from the south shore of Lake Ontario over the Adirondack Mountains and southeast to the Atlantic coast, giving it an especially high diversity of plants. The rose is the state flower, and it is one of over 3000 species that grow in the Empire State's mixed forests, pine forests, grasslands, rivers, freshwater marshes, and salt marshes. For many people, plants represent a major aspect of a landscape's character, so it helps to get acquainted with the most representative species to establish a foundation of knowledge on which to build. You can do this with the portable reference New York State Trees & Wildflowers, which features beautiful illustrations of 140 common and familiar trees, shrubs, and wildflowers as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is an excellent tool for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists to use for sharpening their plant identification skills so that they can peer more closely into plants' fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
