    I bought this to look up the different wildflowers on our property. I love it! I go hunting for new flowers so I can look them up and find out more about them. The National Audubon Society Field Guides are always high quality - with great pictures and descriptions. The "plastic" cover is also a blessing so you don't have to worry about dirt or moisture. I only regret not getting it sooner!!

A real, in color photo of each plant and a brief description about the plant and where to find it. Leave it to the Audubon Society to come up with a real winner.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great for general curiosity
    Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2007
    Color: MulticolorSize: Wildflowers-WesternVerified Purchase
    This book is great for those who like to know what they're looking at when they're out on a hike away from home. Since it covers the entire western U.S., it won't have every single flower you come across, but it can often help you get at least to the right family. I have a book that covers every single plant that I could come across right around where I live, but when I go more than a couple hours from home, this is a fun book to have. Great pictures, and great info on each plant in the back.

    I bought this as a second copy to keep in our trailer along with other Audubon guides that I also own. Buying them used made the cost minimal. I like the Audubon guides more than other guides because of the pictures instead of drawings and the vinyl covering. I have bought several Audubon guides from several used sources and was stunned to get a couple of them that looked like they have never been used and they all showed withing four days..

    5.0 out of 5 stars the best field guide to western wild flowers I have found.
    Reviewed in Canada on November 9, 2019
    Color: MulticolorSize: Wildflowers-WesternVerified Purchase
    The colour photographs are excellent as is the organization of the plants by colour, and flower type. The descriptions are good. It would be extremely helpful if drawings or photographs of the entire plant from ground up were included; then the overall shape and proportions of the plant in its entirety and the proportions of flower to plant could be understood. It would be nice if recognition of the plant before and after they flower could be referred to. Nevertheless, for a photographic resource of western wildflowers, it is excellent.

    I wanted a book to identify plant life in the area I live in. This book has great pictures which are sorted by flower colors to make it easy to find and identify. I especially like the smaller size of the book as well as the durable cover. Would purchase any of the Audubon Books again.
