Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Colorado has five different life zones, each growing its own garden of wildflowers. Some wildflowers even grow in many of the different life zones. Look carefully and you'll find everything from the delicate king's crown to the spiny prickly pear. In Colorado Wildflowers you'll discover that even the most common flowering plants have interesting stories to tell. For example, did you know... Blue flax has been used as a salve to treat burns. Native Americans made chewing gum from the stalks of pussytoes. Shrubby cinquefoil is used by wildlife biologists as an indicator of game populations. Learn this and much more in Colorado Wildflowers, one of a series of state wildflower guides for aspiring naturalists. Other books in the series feature the wildflowers of Arizona, California, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oregon, and Texas. With them, you'll learn to appreciate the blossoms that decorate your favorite corner of the world.
