State tree Charter Oak and state wildflower Mountain Laurel are two of the over 2,800 plant species found in Connecticut, where oak-hickory hardwood forest covers much of the natural landscape. Developing a deeper connection with the landscapes often comes down to learning common and familiar plants, so it is handy to have a portable reference like Connecticut Trees & Wildflowers. This is a beautifully illustrated collection of 140 trees, shrubs, and wildflowers, and it includes an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries where you can find many of these plants. Laminated for durability, this 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists who wish to identify Connecticut’s common plants and learn the ecological roles they play.
