A rich and welcome resource for everyone who enjoys wildflowers—casual walker and dedicated student alike... Finding Wildflowers describes dozens of parks, preserves, and other sites within about a hundred miles of the Baltimore-Washington corridor. And it goes well beyond simple description, placing these sites in the context of the region's natural environment, and providing a detailed checklist of species the visitor may see.
A trio of authors (two from the Audubon Society) deliver loads of information about plant life and geology, as well as outlining scores of trails and sites to visit in natural areas... Includes a month-by-month guide to blooming seasons for a variety of plants.
