5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent BOTANICAL key to plants growing in California, June 5, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: A California Flora and Supplement (Hardcover)
This is a technical book for keying out plants growing in the wild in California -- both native and naturalized species. This includes detailed botanical descriptions from plant kingdom Divisions down to species and sub-species and everything in between. Each species is described in detail and where it is found is described.

However, no information on garden culture or ornamental uses is provided. Therefore is is not the book to buy if you want information on gardening with native plants.

5.0 out of 5 stars But not for the casual user..., April 13, 2009
This review is from: A California Flora and Supplement (Hardcover)
This the the California Botanists Bible. But to confidently identify the plants, you need at least stem with leaves and flowers and sometimes seeds too. And you need to understand a specialized botanical vocabulary and be willing to struggle a little.

It is not an everyman's book.
