Wildflowers of Tidewater Virginia by Gupton & Swope,
By Virginia A. Boudreaux (Coles Point, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wild Flowers of Tidewater Virginia (Hardcover)
A 'must-have' little book for anyone living in the Tidewater Area. I have had copy of this small book since 1983 and it is a bible to me and others to whom I have shown it. It is so easy to look up one of those 'weeds by the roadside'. The sections (about ten)are 'bookmarked' by color so if you see something that is red or blue etc just go to pages marked clearly with that color and you WILL find wildflower;good photograph, excellent description. I have given this book as small gift to many friends, they all love it as I do. It will not just sit on your bookshelf so keep it handy to pick up anytime. Highly recommend for novice as well as experienced gardener. There are several other similiar books by same authors, i.e. Wildflowers of Mid Atlantic, Trees and Shrubs of Virginia. Delighted to find it at Amazon, I first went to U. of Va Press where it was published, they did not have and suggested Amazon. Great little book, great little price to pay for so much information.
