Product Description
Produced in cooperation with the Nova Scotia Department of Transportation, this handy guidebook to roadside plants and wild flowers was originally developed for the use of field personnel to aid in the identification of typical roadside plants and their relevance to vegetation management. Under the guidance of plant specialist Diane LaRue, this guide has been extensively expanded and now includes over forty common wildflowers, twenty-five shrubs, twenty grasses and lichens, as well as some noxious weeds that are common along Nova Scotia’s roadways. Beautiful colour photos enhance the book’s appeal and are combined with extensive research and observation, which make this guide a valuable tool for anyone interested in the common plants of the province. Includes Black-Eyed Susans and Lupines, as well as the little known Tansy and Ragged Robin wildflowers.
