Introducing the In Bloom series! Made for wildflower hunters and casual hikers alike, Timber Press’s In Bloom series are portable and accessible-to-everyone guides to the most prominent wildflowers you are likely to see in your region.
Why learn about wildflowers?
If for no other reason, learning to identify plants (and animals) helps you “avoid or overcome the monotony of anonymous scenery,” as botany professor Dr. Robert Mohlenbrock wrote so aptly years ago.
Wisconsin writer and naturalist Aldo Leopold wrote, “When we see land [and the associated wildflowers] as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”
—Michael Homoya, from Wisconsin in Bloom
