A wide variety of plant species grow in this area, and nearly 200 new plants not formerly identified with this area have been included in the listings.Especially valuable to amateur botanists, the book is an important manual in identifying the plants that make up the native scenery of this region. Seventy-seven illustrations aid in identifying and understanding the plant communities."
