Summary

"Wetlands plants of New England provides information on the rich woody flora of the region's wetlands and offers a ready means of identifying these plants at any professional fieldworkers in the wetland sciences, it is intended to bridge the gap between more technical floras and overly-simple field guides with a focus on wetland trees, shrubs, and lianas. Includes all woody species--native, naturalized, or escaped--within the six New England states that one may encounter in or around swamps, bogs, and marches. 124 plant species, common or rare, are fully described, mapped & illustrated with an additional 50 species discussed for comparison purposes. Identification keys are provided for both summer or winter conditions."--Page 4 of cover
