100 Desert Wildflowers

The blooming desert is a sight never to be forgotten. Wildflowers as high as your shins, even to your knees, carpet the desert in an array of magenta, blue, orange, white, and yellow. You can lie back in a field of perfumed vegetation and disappear from view as bees buzz over your nose in their untiring search for nectar and pollen. 100 Desert Wildflowers is an indispensable guide to the names, characteristics, ranges, approximate bloom times, and other important identifying features of the flowering plants you're most likely to encounter in both wet years and dry years. Packed with 100 close-up photographs of the species you’re most likely to encounter in the desert Southwest, this book is your essential guide to the blossoming deserts of the Southwest.
