A practical reference for identifying Michigan-area flora

A revised and expanded successor to Henry A. Gleason’s 1918 guide, this field reference concentrates on flowering plants and trees found in Michigan, neighboring Great Lakes states, and southern Ontario. Rabeler updates the plant-family descriptions and supplies identification keys alongside habitat and geographic-distribution information. An illustrated terminology section, glossary, comprehensive plant-name index, and introduction to Michigan botany make the volume useful both in the field and as a regional reference. Its scope connects identification with the ecological context in which plants occur.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Naturalists identifying flowering plants and trees in Michigan and the Great Lakes region
  • Botanists and environmental specialists needing a regional plant reference
  • Wildflower and native-flora enthusiasts seeking identification keys and terminology help
