A Plant Key to the Chaparral
Title |
Key to Coastal and Chaparral Flowering Plants of Southern California
(Third Edition)

Author |
Dr. Barbara J. Collins

Description |
The book has been written for the lay person and is an attempt to
make it possible to identify plants without having an extensive
botanical background. The key to the identification of the plants is
simplified, and terminology is kept to a minimum. A glossary occurs
in the back of the book to define all terms. All plants are
illustrated with line drawings. The
book does not have color photographs, however. These are
entirely limited to this web site. |
