    About this ebook

    This introductory edition is part one in a series about growing wildflowers native to a temperate climate. This book will serve as a general overview to wild flowers, and the other books in the series will treat how you can create specialized gardens in order to grow virtually any wildflowers you want, as well as learn how to identify common non-wild flowers (usually called ‘weeds’).
