A unique, stunningly illustrated exploration of North American wildflowers, weaving together history, folklore, and literature.

This beautiful coffee table book pairs the detailed botanical knowledge of a field guide with the evocative power of a literary anthology, offering a new way to appreciate the flora around us. Beyond being a simple identification guide, American Wildflowers is a rich journey through the history, cultural significance, and enduring beauty of the American landscape.

A perfect gift for anyone who seeks a deeper connection to the American landscape, this book is a winner of the American Horticultural Society Book Award.

Each entry is a meticulously crafted profile that includes:

  • Striking, full-color botanical illustrations for accurate identification.
  • Essential scientific and habitat information.
  • Fascinating histories of medicinal, culinary, and decorative uses.
  • Cultural folklore and myths associated with the species.
  • Poetic and literary excerpts from naturalists, poets, and writers like Henry David Thoreau, Emily Dickinson, John Muir, and Mary Oliver, highlighting the plant's place in American consciousness.


Perfect for gardeners, nature lovers, hikers, and literature enthusiasts alike, this book celebrates the biodiversity of North America and shows how wildflowers have inspired—and continue to inspire—our greatest thinkers and artists.

Too soon to tell. Does hold All my cards. good looking wallet. However, once all cards are in place, very stiff and thick. As I said, Time will tell. Hope it will soften with use. Saved my old one ...Just in case. Patty

I expect to be using it for years
Color: Brown, Style: Modern
Very well made product. It matched the description in every way. It is still a little stiff but I know it will stretch into a comfortable use product because that is how leather is. Why did you pick this product vs others?: I liked the retro look that was offered Card capacity: including hiden pockets there are 13 as described. Comfort: nicely smooth and fits well in my pocket.  Slimness:   A smidge bulkier than expected but not a problem Value for money: definitely worth the price. Smell: I could smell the leather tanning.  Quality: My girl friend is proud to have me produce it at the bar.
