In a state as big as Texas, you might think there'd be lots of wildflowers. And you're right! More than 5,000 different kinds of wildflowers splash their colors across the shady forests, dusty plains, and salty coastline of the Lone Star State. Look carefully and you'll find everything from dainty bluebells to tough Texas thistles, form fragrant rain lilies to tasty meadow beauties, from insect-eating sundew to insect-nurturing ironweed. In Texas Wildflowers you'll discover that even the most common flowering plants have interesting stories to tell. For example, did you know that ... Wild indigo has been used to treat typhus, scarlet fever, and other illnesses. Some people think the tuber of the blazing star can cure the effects of a rattlesnake bite. Spider wort is sensitive to radiation and may help warn us about dangerous pollution. Some Indians used the downy seeds of the cattail to make diapers. Learn this and much more in Texas Wildflowers, one of a series of state wildflower guides for children. Other books in the series feature Arizona, California, Minnesota, Montana, and Oregon. With them, you'll learn to appreciate the blossoms that decorate your favorite corner of the world.
