The Wild Orchids of California
Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review
College libraries with special interests in California botany will want to make this a required reference addition to collections: California offers some of the most diverse growing conditions in the country and this reflects the author's field work, research, and descriptions of the plants and their natural history.
Book Description
This profusely illustrated field guide covers the 31 species of orchids that grow wild in California.

Coleman's wide fieldwork, literature review, and herbarium research. Written in a clear narrative style, Coleman's species accounts describe the plants and flowers, their habitats, distribution, pollinators, and blooming season.
