With six distinct Natural Regions—Boreal, Canadian Shield, Foothills, Grassland, Parkland, and Rocky Mountain—Alberta hosts a tremendous variety of over 2600 plants, including the beloved provincial flower, the Wild Rose. Sifting through so many species is a challenge, so it helps to get to know the most common trees, shrubs, and wildflowers, as you can do with the help of this beautifully illustrated collection of 140 familiar species. Especially useful is the ecoregion map on the back panel featuring over 20 botanical sanctuaries. Laminated for durability, this folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists who want to identify and forge a deeper relationship with the plants of Alberta.
