Description

Since Kentucky is located at a biological crossroads in eastern North The us, citizens and visitors to this beautiful state are likely to be greeted by an astonishing variety of wildflowers. This non-technical guide―featuring more than five hundred dazzling full-color photographs by award-winning photographer Thomas G. Barnes―is the state’s indispensable guide to the most typical species in the Commonwealth.

With this book, readers will discover ways to identify and appreciate Kentucky wildflowers and ferns by matching photographs and leaf line drawings to the more than six hundred and fifty species of flowers covered in the book. Extremely practical and simple to use, the guide’s color photographs and line drawings appear with plant descriptions for simple identification, and plants are grouped by flower color and blooming season. Each and every species listing includes the plant’s common and scientific name, plant circle of relatives, habitat, frequency, and distribution all over Kentucky, with similar species listed in the notes.

There is no other volume that covers the flora of Kentucky with such ease of identification. The first new statewide guide to appear in thirty years, with its combination of top of the range photographs, illustrations, portability, and easy organization of information, Wildflowers and Ferns of Kentucky is an essential addition to the library or field pack of the wildflower enthusiast, naturalist, and any individual else who loves the outdoors.
