Description: Weeds of the Midwestern United States and Central Canada, Paperback by Bryson, Charles T. (EDT); Defelice, Michael S. (EDT); Evans, Arlyn W. (PHT); Defelice, Michael S. (PHT); Defelice, Michael S. (ILT), ISBN 0820335061, ISBN-13 9780820335063, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This impressive volume offers identification and other information for over 350 weeds found in the humid, hot-summer, cold-winter areas of central North America, with over 1400 color photographs to aid identification. For this work, the editors have defined as a weed all invasive plants that interfere with agrigulture, industry, and natural ecosystems, with both native and introduced plants included. The entry for each plant begins by listing the English, French, Latin, and common names; and a distribution map. The bulk of each entry is made up of detailed descriptive sections on the plant's habit, habitat and origin; its seedling characteristics; the mature plant characteristics--including its roots, stems, inflorescences, flowers, and fruits; any special identifying features; and its toxic properties. To enable maximum success with identification, several photos accompany each entry, including the seed, seedling, and various stages or types of inflorescence, flowers, and fruit. In addition to the photos, the entries for the grasses include a line drawing of the collar. Management guidelines are omitted. Includes a glossary and bibliography.
