• This is the long, catalog/marketing description of the product.Covering a staggering 94,000 square miles, the Great Lakes Basin is the world's largest freshwater watershed and is one of the great wonders of the natural world in North America. Its varied landscapes and wetlands ? from coastal dune systems and low-lying fens to upland hardwood forests and rich meadows ? host thousands of plant species, including an impressive diversity of orchids and numerous regional specialities. Getting to know plants is the entry point into better connecting with the land and understanding its natural process, yet the task is daunting with so many species to discover. It helps, then, to have a portable reference to cut through the clutter and focus on the most familiar and representative species. The beautifully illustrated collection Great Lakes Trees & Wildflowers features 140 common trees, shrubs, and wildflowers and includes an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this 12-panel folding pocket guide is the perfect companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists, who wish to deepen their understanding of the Great Lakes Basin through its attendant flora. Made in the USA.
