Synopsis

There is lots to learn when exploring the thousands of plant species that grow in Idaho, including state flower Syringa. A varied landscape that includes shrub- and grass-covered plains, volcanic plateaus, wetlands, and forested mountains allows for continuous learning opportunities. The challenge is knowing where to start, so it helps to have a portable reference like Idaho Trees & Wildflowers on hand. This beautifully illustrated collection features 140 common and familiar trees, shrubs, and wildflowers as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists looking to forge a deeper connection with the land through its attendant flora. Made in the USA.
