The mountains and plains of the West bloom with flowers most guides ignore. Margaret Armstrong keys them out family by family, from the lilies and irises to the orchids, with her own illustrations to match. A trusted companion for the western wildflower walker. Carry it into the hills and name the blossoms of the West.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
