Useful throughout the southeast, north of Florida--90 percent of the native trees from Delaware to east Texas are included--this field guide identifies 205 species and varieties, with keys and complete plant descriptions that highlight differences between similar taxa.
Native Trees of the Southeast is a practical, compact field guide for the identification of the more than 225 trees native to the Southeast. Each profile includes photographs illustrating key features, descriptions, range maps, and keys for both summer and winter conditions.

This complete and authoritative work provides identification keys, full descriptions, and line drawings that make it possible to identify 383 native and naturalized species of trees, shrubs, and woody vines found in northern Florida and adjacent Georgia and Alabama. Casual observers of the lower coastal plain may at first see a landscape dominated by pines. Closer observation reveals a great diversity of plants--patterns of contrasting vegetation caused by the complex physical and biotic factors at work. In this richly vegetated area, a rise of only four feet in elevation can bring significant changes in community composition, changes comparable, perhaps, to those occurring on a four-thousand-foot mountainside. The descriptions in this guide are useful not only for identification but also for their help in enhancing the user's knowledge of the plants. Each description is followed by information on the habitat in which the species is known to occur, the species' general location within the area under study, and its overall geographic range. Whenever possible, vegetative characteristics have been used in the keys so that the book is useful beyond the sometimes brief flowering seasons of the species. The use of technical terminology has been minimized in the keys and descriptions, and a full glossary is provided. Based on thirty years of constant study and firsthand observation, Robert K. Godfrey's manual is a definitive work on this area's notably diverse woody flora, from the common longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) and Jackson-brier (Smilax smallii) to locally rarer species such as the fragrant sumac (Rhus aromatica), Spanish bayonet (Yucca gloriosa), and ornamental Chinese tallow-tree (Sapium sebiferum).

Excerpt from Common Forest Trees of Georgia: How to Know Them In 1930, the handbook was reprinted by the Florida Forest Service. The only change from the original edition was the inclusion of a supplemental list of 158 less important native species not described. Florida is the most prolific state in the Union in tree flora. There are approximately 314 species growing in the state, comprising almost half of all the trees in North America, north of Mexico. The state's tree flora can be broken down into four principal divisions: sweet gum, red maple, tulip tree and slash pine in the north; a southern-division composed of longleaf pine, magnolia, and cypress; a Caribbean representa tion including royal palm, mahogany, and gumbo limbo and an endemic representation such as Florida yew, dune holly, and Florida hickory.

This is the long-awaited second volume of Godfrey and Wooten's definitive survey of aquatic and wetland plants of the southeastern United States. It focuses on native and naturalized dicotyledons of the region and provides well-written, concise descriptions and keys for the identification of 1,084 species. A glossary of terms, list of references, separate indexes of common and scientific names, and nearly 400 well-executed drawings complete the volume. The first comprehensive survey of the aquatic and wetland plants of the Southeast, the Godfrey and Wooten volumes will prove invaluable to botanists, ecologists, college students, government agencies involved in land-use management, and nonspecialists interested in the plant life and ecology of the region.
Designed especially for winter use and featuring almost six hundred illustrations, this taxonomic guide describes some nine hundred plant species by their twig, bud, and bark characteristics. All the trees, shrubs, and woody ground covers that grow without aid of cultivation in the Southeast are presented here, in a single reference.
