A statewide reference for identifying Michigan’s wild seed plants

Covering more than 2,700 native and naturalized species recorded in Michigan, this substantial field reference brings identification, habitat, and distribution information into one volume. Concise keys support plant identification, while updated maps document where species have been found across the state. The manual also places change in view: it notes non-native plants’ first recorded discoveries and invasive tendencies, alongside rare native species associated with decline or contracting ranges. Framed as an expanded, updated successor to the three-volume Michigan Flora, it is built for close attention to the state’s plant diversity and shifting botanical record.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Michigan botanists and wildflower enthusiasts

Book overview

Field Manual of Michigan Flora is the most up-to-date guide available for all seed plants growing wild in Michigan. Significantly expanding and updating the three-volume Michigan Flora, the book incorporates the discoveries of numerous additional species, recent systematic research, and a vast trove of new information on the shifting distributions of Michigan species. It presents concise identification keys, information about habitats, and completely updated distribution maps for all the seed plants, native or naturalized, that have been recorded from the state, fully treating over 2,700 species. All non-native species are included with notes on their first discovery in the state and comments on invasive tendencies. Rare native species that appear to be declining or to have shrinking ranges are also noted. This book is an essential reference for anyone interested in appreciating Michigan's natural heritage and understanding our ever-changing environment.
