Given here are wildflowers of all the New York State habitats, from Long Island to the northern Adirondacks. Common Burdock.

Marjorie Blamey's Wild Flowers by Colour

Author: Marjorie Blamey
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 9780713672374
Category : Flowers
Languages : en
Pages : 208

Book Description
This is an innovative and remarkably user-friendly guide to the identification of the flowers of Britain and northwestern Europe. By organising the species by their colour group first (and by family within that colour group), this guide enables those less familiar with flower taxonomy to quickly and easily find what they are looking for - a great improvement on the often-frustrating business of trawling through a conventionally-organised guide. The lovely artwork by acclaimed illustrator Marjorie Blamey, with a neat, focused and simple text, makes this book a joy to use.
