Wayside Wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest

The fourth and most comprehensive of Dr. Dee Strickler's wildflower books, Wayside Wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest is a floral delight. A colorful guide to the Northwest's most stunning plants, this book helps hikers, cyclists, and motorists identify nearly 400 flower species found along the trails and roadways of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and southwestern Canada. With notes on habitat, range, and plant features and an outstanding glossary of botanical terms, Wayside Wildflowers is an essential reference work for flower enthusiasts and professional botanists. Like Dr. Strickler's three earlier guides to the showy wildflowers of the northern Rockies, this volume features extraordinary sharp and vibrant full-color photographs of each flower. In addition, Wayside Wildflowers boasts a handy visual guide to flower shapes and colors, a map of the region, line drawings, and an informative introduction. For any nature-lover who has asked, "What flower is that?" Wayside Wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest holds the answer.
