Portland Trees & Wildflowers

One of the greenest cities in the US, Portland, Oregon, is a great place to learn about plants. From the sprawling “forest in the city”—Forest Park—to tiny Mill End Park—the fabled smallest park in the world—there are numerous sites in which to get better acquainted with local plants like the state wildflower, Oregon Grape, and the state tree, Douglas-fir. It is through the intimate study of plants that so many of us forge deeper and more meaningful connections with landscapes, so it’s helpful to have quick access to a reliable and portable reference. This resource features beautiful illustrations of over 100 common and familiar trees, shrubs, and wildflowers, as well as an ecoregion map showing some of the top botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, the lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and botanists who wish to sharpen their plant identification skills and learn more about Portland’s plants.
