This is the long, catalog/marketing description of the product.Over 3000 plant species can be found in Maryland and Washington DC, including Maryland's state flower Black-eyed Susan. There is also an especially high number of rare species in the area, making Maryland and DC great places for learning about plants and the landscapes they inhabit. Sifting through such a rich assemblage of species is challenging, so it helps to have a portable reference on hand for getting to know the most familiar plants. The beautifully illustrated Maryland & DC Trees & Wildflowers features 140 common 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 who strive to sharpen their plant identification skills and forge deeper connections with plants and their fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
