Identifying the Wildflowers of Michigan Made Easy!
Michigan is a great place for wildflower enthusiasts! The state is at the crossroads of three major vegetative habitats. Each of these vegetative zones contains a wide and often unique variety of wildflowers, and Stan Tekiela’s Wildflowers of Michigan Field Guide makes identifying them easy.
The upper Midwest location is unique because there is a western wildflower influence, an even stronger eastern influence, and a strong northern boreal influence. All of this means Michigan is fortunate to have an extremely diverse, often unique, and certainly a very healthy variety of wonderful wildflowers.
With this field guide by award-winning author and naturalist Stan Tekiela, you can make wildflower identification simple, informative, and productive. There’s no need to look through dozens of photos of wildflowers that don’t grow in Michigan.
Learn about 200 of the most common and important species found in the state. They’re organized in the field guide by color and then by size for ease of use. Fact-filled information contains the particulars that you want to know, while full-page photographs provide the visual detail needed for accurate identification.
This new edition includes updated photographs, expanded information, and even more of Stan’s expert insights. Grab Wildflowers of Michigan Field Guide for your next outing―to help you positively identify the wildflowers that you see.
