Spring flowers

With spring, life explodes in the woods, where most of the region's spring plants flourish. You won't find them anywhere else in the world, as they grow only in the forests of northeastern America. Many grow for 10, 15, or 25 years before producing their first flower, but they live to be a hundred or two hundred years old! This guide delves into the very heart of their fascinating lives. It encourages respect for wild forest plants and helps understand why they should not be picked. "Flore printanière" is an enriched update of "Plantes sauvages printanières" by Gisèle Lamoureux and collaborators, published in 1975. Completely new texts and photographs, with the addition of about thirty species. An identification guide for 123 species of wild spring plants from eastern North America. 576 pages. 290 color photos. 99 distribution maps in North America.
