<p>The desert areas of California include the northwestern portion of the Sonoran Desert, the largest part of the Mojave Desert, and the western margin of the Great Basin. A key ecological feature of the remarkable California desert region is winter-rainfall coupled with dry summers. This rainfall regime, a gradient of temperatures from low- to high-elevations, and a complex array of rocks has produced highly specialized habitats for plant survival. California Desert Plants explores these vast and intimate desert landscapes through their diverse, colorful, and dynamic flora. The book includes: Over 400 color photographs of plants and landscapes. Descriptions and photos of dominant plant species. Overview of plant adaptations to desert environments. Discussion of major desert habitats</p>
