And, for several of the most popular (Newcombs, especially) you really first must learn to use the key or just page thru the book and hope you find your flower/plant. Because Newcomb's uses a series of keys, some people who have never tried to ID a flower may have problems. Although the key in Newcombs isn't really that hard to understand, I still find that the Peterson guide is just plain easier to use at home or in the field. I carry a copy in my vehicle with my other field guides.With this book, if the flower is blooming you ID by flower color. Yes, an 8 year old can easily use it. The I've used nearly all of the Wildflower guides but this one is the best in my opinion, was my first wildflower guide and it will always be my favorite. I've gone thru 3 copies of it since 1962.This guide has really well written descriptions of each plant and the important subtle differences between species are explained and pointed out, with arrows and text for each of the drawings. This book has more illustrations than the Newcomb's book, and the easy to use highlighted habitat/range descriptions also help in quickly figuring out a plant's ID. The black and white drawings are very easy to use- you already know the flower color, and line drawings show key characteristics very precisely. What's important is that you know the color of the flower if it's blooming and the shape of the leaf. The flowers are organized by color and also by family so with a minimum of experience it's just plain easy to make an ID. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Peterson Field Guides are Best *by on Reviewed in the United States September 24, 2024* I had been looking to replace my Peterson Field Guide to Wildflowers because it is falling apart. I finally found a replacement copy, and it is in great condition. Peterson Field Guides provide the information that I want in an easy-to-use format. I purchased several of the newer field guides to wildflowers from other authors, and while they are full of color photos, none of them made searching for a plant that I was trying to identify an easy process. Most of them did not have images of plants that included leaves or other key features to use in identification. I couldn't determine the purpose of some of the books. Peterson's field guide is separated into sections based on flower color and provides other tips about what to look for. Leaves/stems are illustrated along with flowers. The book is a nice size to take with you into the field. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very handy and informative book *by on Reviewed in the United States November 17, 2019* We say this book at a local arboretum gift shop and thought it would be very useful since we like to hike and sometimes come across wildflowers that we can’t readily identify. I didn’t buy it at the time and regretted it, so I searched online for it and ordered it. It’s a very nice book and very informative. The sections in the book are divided by color, which makes it easier to find a particular flower. There is lots of color pictures, black and white drawings, and descriptions of each flower along with bloom times and locations. I highly recommend this handy book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2164089-a-peterson-field-guide-to-wildflowers-northeastern-and-north-central](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2164089-a-peterson-field-guide-to-wildflowers-northeastern-and-north-central) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
