The major part of the book takes wild flowers alphabetically, giving description, locale, blooming season, species, culture - perhaps too much information for the neophyte, but valuable for experienced gardeners

The major part of the book takes wild flowers alphabetically, giving description, locale, blooming season, species, culture - perhaps too much information for the neophyte, but valuable for experienced gardeners. The illustrations are disappointing;- spot half tones, rather dark in reproduction and fifty color plates that lack the authenticity of color reproduction of the fine wild flower books now on the market. The type face in the body of the text is small, so the book will serve more as a reference tool than a field or work guide.

There are two varieties, the large pubescens and the small parviflorum. The former is the easier to grow in the home garden
