A comprehensive and indispensable reference for identifying and appreciating native flora From its summits to its shores, South Carolina brims with life and unparalleled beauty thanks to its abundant array of native and naturalized flora, all carefully documented in this revised and expanded edition of A Guide to the Wildflowers of South Carolina. Dramatic advances in plant taxonomy and ecology have occurred since the guide's publication 20 years ago; new species have been discovered while others struggle to survive in the face of vanishing habitats and climate change. The authors, all experienced botanists, offer essays on carnivorous plants, native orchids, Carolina bays, the roles and effects of fire and agriculture on the landscape, and detailed descriptions of the plant communities throughout the state's major natural regions. This expanded edition catalogs nearly 1,000 species organized by habitat, with descriptions, color photographs, range maps, and comments on pharmacological uses, suitability for garden cultivation, origin of common and scientific names, and conservation status.

"Identifying wildflowers is a popular pastime for many gardeners and lovers of wildlife. But many botanical identification books just aren''t user-friendly. Pick up wildflower expert Walter Kingsley Taylor''s latest offering and you''ll find out just how much fun it is to track down the flower on the side of the road."--Tampa Tribune "Goes a step beyond the norm of being just a field guide. It is an absolute inspiration and incentive to get out into the woods."--Palatka Daily News "If you would like to attend a fascinating and informative lecture by one of Florida''s foremost experts on the state''s wildflowers and where they may be found--all in the comfort of your own home--by all means, read this book."--Orlando Sentinel "Taylor''s guide will help readers recognize and identify wildflowers in a different way, not principally by their color or family group, but by where they''re most likely to be found growing--their natural habitat."--Gainesville Sun "This new field guide is the best yet for Florida wildflowers. . . . Each entry includes a description, time of flowering, habitat, Florida distribution, and often a comment field that discusses related species, etymology, and even culinary and landscape uses."--Floridata "Taylor''s unorthodox approach has garnered positive comments from casual, weekend hikers as well as those with a professional interest in wildflowers. . . . It has remarkably broad appeal, because it''s so clear and well done and because the photos are excellent."--Lakeland Ledger "In this unique and refreshing approach to a wildflower guide, photographs visually illustrate the natural plant community described at the beginning of each community section. . . . An excellent and most useful guide."--Choice Walter Kingsley Taylor''s Florida Wildflowers in their Natural Communities was wildly praised for its beauty, ease of use, and unique organizational structure: plants were described in the context of where they grow, making identification much simpler--and more rewarding--for the casual hiker or wildflower enthusiast. Vastly expanded and updated with new taxonomy, this volume provides detailed information on more than 450 species included in the earlier edition and nearly doubles the number of species included by expanding coverage into wetlands.
