It includes several types of identification keys for specialists and laypeople; maps showing distribution, abundance, and flowering periods, descriptions of each species and its habitat, and very clear drawings. Knowledge of botanical terms is helpful. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
