Excerpt from California Wild Flowers, Their Culture and Care: A Treatise Describing Upwards of a Hundred Beautiful Species With a Few Notes on Their Habits and Characteristics In the eastern states the seed should be sown in Spring after danger of frost is over. Most species will prove successful there, and be highly prized. While nearly all the annuals listed in this book let will succeed ih the Open sunlight, there are some which do quite well in shade or partial shade, and others which require it. On page 2 I have given a list of the best kinds for planting in shady places, also some desirable kinds for very hot dry locations, and lists in separate colors for producing a succes sion of bloom, given as nearly as possible in the order in which they commence owering, also some low growing kinds for small beds.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... The Washington Lily The.literature of the ages knew nothing of the Washington Lily of California. Today it ranks among the most beautiful of the world's lilies. No other flower has so many religious associations as the Lily. It stands for purity and majesty. Almost every poet from Homer to Tennyson has sung its praises; none more so than Julia Ward Howe, in her "Battle Hymn of the Republic." "In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea, With the glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on." The Washington Lily By Bertha M. Rice Our beautiful, fragrant mountain lily, Lilium washing tonianum; must be, I think, the most beautiful of all our Western lilies. It is said to be the only pure white American lily. In all this world there could hardly be a sweeter, fairer flower. There is something singularly impressive about the tall, straight plant, with its handsome whorls of polished, wavy-margined, dark green leaves and its smooth, stout, purple stem, crowned with a radiance of glistening white blossoms. The whole attitude of the plant is one of quiet dignity and grace. A feeling of reverence must fill the heart when one is permitted to gaze upon its perfect flowers. Never shall I forget the sudden joy which took possession of my soul when my first Easter Lilies unfurled their fragrant chalices of light. They furnished the subject, I believe, of almost my only accepted and published poem; and the thoughts of those sweet blossoms have remained with me throughout my whole life, a sacred, and fragrant memory. Since then, I have found this white moun-j tain lily even more impressively beautiful. In our heavenly Father's gardens are blossoms...

"Beauty and the Beast: California Wildflowers and Climate Change" is a 12 x 12'' beautifully illustrated and designed 264 page coffee table book created by conservation photographers Rob Badger and Nita Winter.Illustrations: 190 stunning images of California's diverse wildflowers and their habitats, from high mountain passes in the Sierra Nevada mountains to below sea level in Death Valley National Park.Essays: Sixteen talented and diverse authors and scientists, most of whom are women, wrote 18 storytelling style essays (1,200 to 1,800 words) about nature, conservation, climate change or taking action. The two younger authors write about hope and action, and what people can do to help create positive change. The book has three sections: The Gift of Beauty, The Human Connection and Ensuring the Future.Because people are constantly hearing about all the negative things going on in the world, Nita and Rob believed there was a need for a different, softer approach to grab people's attention and center it on the climate-change story, and conservation and population issues. They engage their audiences by first inviting them to experience the splendor of the natural world through a universal symbol of beauty, the wildflower, and then educate and inspire them to take some of the simple actions they provide to create positive change and a healthier planet. Their goal is to spread conservation and climate change ideas far beyond native plant and nature lovers, and to plant the seeds to foster action."Beauty and the Beast" is a 27 year photographic journey into the public lands of California. Lands we all own, lands under constant threat of development or resource extraction, impacts of global warming, sea level rise and wildfires. This book is as much a treasure as the flowers and creatures which are featured within its pages. Nita and Rob extend a hand to you to come in and take a long, slow look around and see what they have seen, experienced and have learned. Book includes two comprehensive indexes and a glossary.Co-published by WinterBadger Press and the California Native Plant Society

Children who lack regular contact with the natural world suffer in various ways ranging from nervousness, boredom, apathy, lack of purpose, lack of empathy, to passivity, and the list goes on. A growing number of children are being identified as suffering from NDD, the abreviation for "Nature Deficit Disorder," caused by an increasing estrangment from the great outdoors. Many people, both children and adults, have never experienced the healthy joy and satisfaction of rambling through the woods and becoming acquainted with the wild animals and plants that live there.Just as it would be unthinkable to live life without learning the names of one's schoolmates or coworkers, so equally is it an impoverished existence that fails to gain familiarity with our fellow beings here on planet Earth. The birds, trees, insects, flowers, animals, and stars, each have their own special language reserved for those who take the time to know and love them. These are secret and ineffible languages of the heart: they are learned only through regular and frequent comunion with the natural world.The Wildflowers of California by Mary Elizabeth Parsons, is just what the doctor ordered. Written in the folksy style of an enthusiast rather than in the dry, boring, and tedious language of a botanist, this book nevertheless provides us with all that is needed in the way of scientific names and plant families. These classifications serve the advanced student with a means to understand the interrelationships between the various tribes of the plant world. These botanical names, however, are secondary. As the great horticulturist, Alan Chadwick, once said to a student who had faltered in the identification of a newly germinated seedling, "Dear child, the name is of no great importance; just please, tell me that you know it intimately."The 150 illustrations in The Wildflowers of California, drawn by Margaret Warriner Buck, capture the distinctive character of each individual plant. The book also includes an identification key based on the colors of the flowers that will clear up any possible doubts about the names of the wildflowers. With an index of both common and botanical names, it is easy to find any particular plant. The Glossary defines all the scientific terms. We heartily recommend this book.
