Description
Chaparral Shrubs is a field guide to 132 shrub and subshrub species found in the chaparral of southern California. Each species is described and illustrated with color photographs, and a simple key to all species, based on vegetative features, is included to aid identification. Descriptions include details of the plant's growth-form, typical habitats and elevation range where found, blooming-period, fire response, wildlife values, and traditional human uses. A distribution map indicates known occurrence of each shrub in California. The guide is fully indexed, and a glossary defines the botanical terms used. The guide will be valuable for students, resource managers, fire specialists, and anyone desiring to learn more about California's diverse native flora.
