Includes Foreword by Lady Bird Johnson; Foreword; Afterword by Carlto…n B. Lees; Selected Bibliography; Sources of Regional Wildflower Seed Mixtures; Index of Flowers Illustrated and Index. Profusely illustrated with color photographs and color drawings. "Wildflowers Across America is both a tribute to one of this country's loveliest natural resources and a strong plea for increasing the use of native plants and wildflowers in America's future landscaping. Once established, wildflowers take little maintenance and are an ecologically sound and low-cost way to make roadsides, park areas, golf-course roughs, or your own country garden grow and bloom. Not only does this idea spread the sheer beauty of our continent's native flora, but it helps reverse the considerable harm that has been done to our environment for decades. With water a rapidly diminishing resource in many areas of the country, it is no longer wise to continue maintaining the traditional lush lawns and decorateve shrubbery in inappropriate environments. But our biosphere suffers increasing danger as well from the huse of herbicides and chemical fertilizers that build up in the land and in the food chain. This book argues that we should let nature be our guide and get ourselves in rhythm with her teachings. However, although we have built up centuries of knowledge about the best ways to grow vegetables, fruit, and garden flowers, we seem to know next to nothing about the propagation of wildflowers. To remedy this ignorance, Lady Bird Johnson decided that the time had come to begin accumulating the same kinds of broad data for natural flora that we have for the cultivated roses and tulips in our own gardens. Accordingly, in 1982, she donated $125,000 and a few of the family's acres outside Austin, Texas, to the founding of a National Wildflower Research Center. This book is a true collaborative effort between the country's preeminent wildflower enthusiast and a prominent horticulturist who responds to her coulntless questions aobut wildflowers. Why do some thrive in some places and not in others? How do they propagate naturally ? Are all of our well loved wildflowers native to this continent or have many been introduced from other regions? In dealing with questions like these, Carlton Lees has selected relevant excerpts from the journals of seventeenth and eighteenth century plant explorers who saw this land in its pristine beauty and recorded for Old World scientists the botanical wonders of the New World. Lees also chose to illustrate some of the most beautiful representations of America's unique flora in botanical publicantions of this early period. But one of the major treats of this volume is the superabundance of beautiful wildflowers show in the wild and in their true, natural color. Not only are carefully identified flower portraits scattered throughout this book, but an unparalleled 105-page album featuring the best-loved and most spectacular of America's wildflowers has been selected by Les Line from the world of the nation's best nature photographers." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Add to basketOriginal Printed Wrappers. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. San Francisco: Sierra Club, 1925. First Edition. Vol XII, No. 2, for 1925. This was published during a several-year time period when the Sierra Club did not stipulate the month of an issue, just the volume, the number, and the year- monthly designations for such an…infrequent publication having always been somewhat unnecessary in any case. Original printed wrappers, 9 1/4" x 6 1/4", 102 pp. + unpaginated photographic plates, features and ads, including a plate fold-out with two panoramic wide angles, from Mount Hamilton, by William H. Wright. Very Good plus, really quite close to near fine; the major flaw being the common one that circuit binding (yapp binding) was used, in which cover edges were intentionally extended out beyond page edges, but over time the extended part becomes pressed inward somewhat (see scan). One notable rear-cover chip at top, about 1" x 1.5". Otherwise, just occasional very small points of cover wear. A very handsome copy. See scans. Binding sturdy, contents fine. See scan of contents page for the lineup of stellar club writers and their always engaging and adventurous topics. In addition to the graphics mentioned above, this issue is chock full of photographic plates by the club's best photographers, as well as others. In addition to a serious passel of photos by Walter Huber and Fred Herz, there are photo contributions by T.J. Hellman, Inez Mexia, William E. Colby, Joseph Dixon, H.P. Rankin, Frank H. Lewis, Philip S. Carlton, William H. Wright, Lee L. Stopple, Quong Jue, R.L. van Oosting, and several uncredited. SC2. Walter Huber, Fred Herz, T.J. Hellman, Inez Mexia, William E.
