Wildflowers of the Lake Mead Region - Paperback

by Steve W. Chadde (Author)

Wildflowers of the Lake Mead Region is a full-color field guide to over 100 of the more common wildflowers, shrubs, and cacti found in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, as well as in the surrounding Mohave Desert. Arranged by flower color, the book includes non-technical descriptions of each plant, its blooming period, and where it is most likely to be found. Photographs illustrate the overall plant, and also close-up photos of flowers, leaves or other plant features useful for identification. The Introduction describes five of the main plant communities present in the area.
