5.0 out of 5 stars Charming and Informative, April 21 2011

By JacksonsMom "knarlee1" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Wildflowers And Winter Weeds (Paperback)

I came across an older version of this book in our local library and have decided I must own my own copy.

Lauren Brown has done an excellent job of making 20 categories of weeds easily identifiable with her charming and simple pen & ink drawings. Accompanying each illustration is the common and latin name of the weed, as well as a description of it. The descriptions are a pleasure to read, and very informative.

I highly recommend this book if you enjoy identifying plants.
