BOOKS ABOUT WILDFLOWERS

and Propagating Wildflowers - Phillips

Design layouts of suggested plants for sun, partial sun, and shade, plus soil preparation and maintenance give the beginner a good foundation to work from. The chapter on Ferns, their life cycle’s spore propagation and growing conditions is especially helpful. Also the calendar of blooming dates will assure you of a plan that will help you have native perennial beds that bloom all season long.

Wildflowers
of the Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountains – Adkins & Cook
Go beyond admiring wildflowers for their beauty and learn something about them. How did they come by their common and scientific names? Why does one grow in wetlands and others on mountain tops? Which ones are birds attracted to? What role have they played in folklore and what role do they play in modern medicine? As you hike, take a leisurely walk, or even drive along a highway, take time to look out the window and enjoy what nature has to offer. Perhaps your interest will be awakened and you will look for answers to these questions. The Blue Ridge Mountains and the Great Smoky Mountains are abundant with wildflowers. Plan a trip to this beautiful area with this book in hand.
