Name that Flower... They cover roadsides and blanket fields and pastures, but do they have a name? This new guide describes over 170 species with nearly 1,000 photos of the most common and most dramatic wildflowers of the DFW area prairies, the Panhandle and Rolling Plains. Organized by color and shape, flowers are sorted with record ease, then you verify your choice with 5–10 photos. Photos show close-ups of the flowers, leaves, and full frame shots of the whole plant. Easy to understand descriptions describe the flower, its range, and details that distinguish it from similar-looking species.
