 Wildflowers
of Tennessee, Jack B. Carman
Tennessee's topography contains portions of five of the six
major physiographic provinces of the Southeast. The diverse terrain,
geology and soil types, ample rainfall, moderate climate and latitude all
contribute to a rich, varied and abundant flora within the state.
(Coverage area of book shown right.)
More than 780 color photographs are included, more than in any
similar work portraying a state's flora. Additional species mentioned in
the text prove useful in identifying over 1100 of the state's vascular plants
and a majority of the showier non-woody plants. Species descriptions are
organized consistently for reference and comparison. Families are arranged
phylogenetically and genera within families and species are arranged
alphabetically. 427 pages, softcover with clear plastic
jacket, 6 x 9, color photographs throughout.
