Florida's Fabulous Flowers (ISBN 0911977015)

Categories:


Simple and useful:
Not a bad book large format so it's easy to thumb through and explore.. For greater coverage you would be better off using The National Audubon Societ Field Guide to Florida.


Stunning Flower Photos:
The large pages, with 2 or 3 photos per page, really show off Florida's lush flowers. Many of the flowers come from South America or Africa originally and the book tells the origin of each. A description accompanies each photo telling tidbits about the flower. Example: Night Blooming Jasmine (berries and sap are poisonous), Lantana (is a pest in Hawaii), Pelican Flower (traps insects)... Unfortunately the information is somewhat random, reducing the book's value as a reference source. You will need to look elsewhere for growing information. It is wonderful for browsing and familiarizing yourself with tropical flowers. The photos are large and clear and even include the occasional butterfly or frog.


Florida's Fabulous Flowers:
Great pictures, easy to understand. Only negative comment, just wish there were more flowers listed in the book.
