An acclaimed, beautifully illustrated introduction to spring-blooming wildflowers of the northeastern United States and Canada

This exquisitely illustrated volume provides an accessible, in-depth introduction to spring-blooming wildflowers of the northeastern United States and Canada. Featuring more than 500 detailed color photos and a large, beautifully designed format, the book delves into the life histories of more than thirty-five wildflowers and their relatives, from common favorites, such as bloodroot and Jack-in-the-pulpit, to interesting, lesser-known species, including miterwort and featherfoil. Drawing on a wealth of personal experience and the latest scientific research, and presenting it all in terms anyone can understand, acclaimed naturalist and photographer Carol Gracie invites readers to enhance their appreciation of the beauty of these wildflowers by learning not just their names or how many petals they have, but what pollinates them, how their seeds are dispersed, how they interact with other plants and animals, how Native Americans and other people have used them, and other interesting facts.

Each species is illustrated with a range of detailed color photos that not only capture its beauty but illustrate the features discussed in the text and show the plant in its environment alongside the pollinators, herbivores, or seed dispersers with which, in many cases, the wildflower has evolved. Other topics covered include the naming of wildflowers; pathogens and pests; related species in other parts of the world; and wildflowers in history, literature, and art.

Presenting authoritative information in an inviting style, Spring Wildflowers of the Northeast is an ideal volume for wildflower lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, naturalists, students, and more.

Great buy.
Size: One Size, Color: Black
I have one of these in a reddish color. I bought this one because it’s black and I needed a black one from the same brand Hobo I love that brand. Very nice to have to use as a wallet and or for both purse and wallet holds a lot.

Great Looking. Funky. Convenient for Hands Free-ness
Size: One Size, Color: Black
I love the modern lines of this purse. And of course, as Hobo always does, it has a fun interior. The circle part is large enough to put your forearm through. So I bought it thinking I'd only have a clutch...or maybe a wristlet at best. But actually, I can pull it up to my elbow while I'm shopping and flipping through things. That is so cool. I've never had this many compliments on a purse. Mind you, it is still small. So if you carry a tote-sized purse, this will seem teeny. I find it super handy while traveling too. It goes inside of my backpack or laptop case. Then you can grab it without schlepping your entire suitcase around. I'm not a purse gal, so this is my upsizing from being a wallet-only person. Being able to also have keys and a pen and some lip gloss in there is a great bonus over wallet-only days.
