Grassland Plant ID for Everyone - Except Folks That Take Boring Technical Stuff Too Seriously is an easy to use field guide that will help you identify almost 300 species of grasses, cacti, and other plants found in the Southwestern Grasslands. It includes over 400 quality color photos. No technical botanical knowledge is needed to use this book. Clear information is presented for hikers, birders, students, range managers, and folks that would like to just learn more about our grasslands. In addition to plant identification, there is also information about pollinators, invasive species, plant propagation and using native grassland plants in landscaping.
I just got my copy and I can already tell you it's my favorite Arizona plant ID book. I live in Cochise County and this book is everything I've wanted to see for a very long time. Finally! There isn't a lot of detail, as the title suggests, for each plant, just about a paragraph on each entry (one entry per page). But the pictures are spot on. (And oh, so beautiful!) It's what you *really* see when you're out in the field. The book is divided into sections: Grasses, trees and shrubs, cacti and succulents, forbs by flower color. I like that it tells if a plant is native or introduced/invasive.Lots of great info in the 'short' and 'not so short' introductions, too.I can use the internet to do in-depth research about a plant if I'm interested, but I have to know what it is first. This book will get me there!
