Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Over 400 species of water and wetland plants found across Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and the northern United States are included in this handy field guide designed for use by both amateur and professional botanists.
The book includes over 300 colour photographs; over 300 line drawings; scientific names, including synonyms and origins; common names; detailed plant descriptions; habitats and distributions; special features, including traditional uses as food or medicine, and unique or harmful characteristics; comparisons to and descriptions of related species.
Since many of the northern wetland plants are circumpolar in distribution, this book will also be useful in other parts of Canada, the United States, and Eurasia.
