New Mexico is a great place to learn about plants, owing to its over 4,000 described species, the fourth largest floral diversity in the US. A major driver of this biodiversity is the Land of Enchantment's varied typography and resulting broad mix of unique ecosystems such as alpine coniferous forests, deserts, juniper scrub, plains, and riparian edges. The spring blooming of desert flowers like state flower yucca is a can't-miss natural phenomenon, as it offers a brief flourish of color and life. Sifting through such a wide array of plant species can be challenging, so it helps to start by establishing a foundation of knowledge about the most representative species. You can do this with the portable reference, New Mexico Trees & Wildflowers, which includes beautiful illustrations of 140 common and familiar trees, shrubs, and wildflowers as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists who wish to sharpen their plant identification skills and peer more closely into plants' fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
