With its varied terrain, Colorado features six major vegetation communities: plains/grassland, foothills, montane, subalpine, alpine, and semi-desert shrubland. Across these regions, over 2,600 plant species grow, including iconic taxa like state tree Blue Spruce and state wildflower Colorado Blue Columbine. About 500 of Colorado's plants are regionally endemic or rare, making for endless intrigue for those wishing to learn Colorado's floral aspect. Plants are all around us and they often shape the character of the land, which is why so many people look to plants when striving to forge stronger relationships with landscapes. It is useful, then, to have the portable reference Colorado Trees & Wildflowers, which incudes 140 common and familiar trees, shrubs, and wildflowers. This beautifully illustrated collection includes an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries. Laminated for durability, this 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists who wish to immerse themselves in Colorado's plant life and better understand the ecological roles the various plants play. Made in the USA.
