The Wild Flowers of California Their Names, Haunts and Habits - Mary Elizabeth Parsons - Bog

1925. A charming study of California's wild flowers. California with its wonderfully varied climate and topography, has a flora correspondingly rich and varied, probably not surpassed by any region of like area in the Northern Hemisphere. The plan of arrangement for the volume is grouping all the white flowers in one section, the yellow in another, the pink in a third, and so on, which in the absence of a key, greatly facilitates the finding of any given flower. The flowers of each section have been arranged as nearly as possible according to their natural succession in the seasons, with a few exceptions. A handy, easy-to-use guide to the Golden State's flora.
