Description: "In the spring, California's rolling hills, green valleys, and coastal slopes are colored with wildflowers treasured by both residents and visitors to the state. First published more than forty years ago, this popular guidebook has helped thousands of amateur and intermediate wildflower enthusiasts learn the names of the flowers located in some of the state's loveliest and most accessible areas - from below the yellow pine belt in the Sierra Nevada westward to the coast. Thoroughly revised and updated throughout, it is now easier to use and scientifically up to date - the perfect guide to take along on outdoor excursions in California and surrounding regions." "It describes more than 400 wildflowers and includes 244 new color photographs and 77 detailed drawings; and plant descriptions now include more detail, are scientifically updated, and give information on where flowers are likely to be seen."--BOOK JACKET.
