Description

Central Beauty: Wildflowers and Flowering Shrubs of the Southern Interior of British Columbia is a follow-up to three previous volumes on wildflowers written by Neil Jennings and published by Rocky Mountain Books. It is being published at the same time as Coastal Beauty Wildflowers and Flowering Shrubs of Coastal British Columbia and Vancouver Island, making a set of five books in the series.

 

All five books include exceptional photographs and interesting information about each plant. For ease of reference, the books are arranged by flower colour and by plant family. A complete index is included, using both the common and the scientific names for all plants.

 

Central Beauty explores the wildflowers and flowering shrubs commonly found in the portions of British Columbia , typically known as the southern interior—very roughly an east/west line drawn through Williams Lake , B.C. The southern limit of the area extends well into the states of Washington , Idaho and Montana.
