I have an older version also. I think this book is excellent for identifying wildflowers but I wish they would do away with the drawings and replace them by pictures.

I loved carrying this book with me everywhere I went this summer. I would pick plants, try to figure out which one was what then dry them in between the proper pages for fun. It was nice to flip through it with dried flowers that kept falling out of the book and staining the pages. Nice pictures and quick overview of the plants.

I own an earlier edition; Peterson Field guides are always useful. I like to combine their drawings with a guide that has photographs for ultimate identification.

Fantastic reference. I bring it camping and consult it whenever I want to type out a plant. Love it.

my least favorite of the peterson guides that i've used.
great illustrations and descriptions but the plants are arranged based on the color of the flower, which makes identification rather difficult outside the blooming season if you don't know at least the family the plant belongs to.

The color plates are helpful, the black and white plates not so much. However I do use this guide all the time.

I love all the Peterson Field Guides. Maybe just all Field Guides, basically.
