Description

Woody plants and cacti are necessary staple foods for cattle, deer, and other Natural world in drought-prone South Texas. Ranchers, hunters, and land managers who wish to identify these plants relied on A Field Guide to Commonplace South Texas Shrubs (published by Texas Parks & Natural world Press and distributed by UT Press), which is now not in print. Responding to ongoing demand for the book, Richard B. Taylor has completely up to date and expanded it with seven new species, new photographs, and a quick plant identification key.

Common Woody Plants and Cacti of South Texas is a simple-to-use plant identification field guide to fifty species that comprise an estimated 90 percent of the region’s woody canopy cover north of the Rio Grande Valley. The species accounts include photographs, descriptions, values to livestock and Natural world, and nutritional information. The book also provides historical perspectives and information on brush management techniques and strategies, in addition to habitat appraisal. All of those resources will enable readers to research stocking rates for deer and cattle, evaluate a prospective hunting lease, or buy property.
