Although I have mentioned my book project regarding local wildflowers, apparently I neglected to annouce that it was done.\u00a0
\nIt is available from Blurb, here:\u00a0Wildflowers of RiverPark<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For more information, go to the navigation panel for this blog and click on “Book”.\u00a0 That will show you all my blog posts about books.<\/p>\n

There are a couple of minor errors in the book.\u00a0 Specifically, my notes regarding the Eastern Redbud tree state that this tree does not produce legume seed pods.\u00a0 Actually, it does.<\/p>\n

Interest in RiverPark is extremely local,\u00a0people who work at this buisiness park.\u00a0 However, during one of my evening photo sessions at the park, I did encounter a couple people who walk around the park, but do not work there.<\/p>\n

\n

For all the people who are employed at RiverPark
\nwho get out and walk around the park.

Flowers are listed first according to color. Each section of the book has the color marked at the top right corner. (White isn\u2019t clearly marked because the page background is typically white.) If you want to look up a particular flower, you can quickly locate the appropriate color-coded section.<\/p>\n

Within any section, pertaining to a color, plants are listed more or less alphabetically by the common name (rather than the scientific name). However, the alphabetic rule is not strictly applied. Two different species having a similar appearance may be shown on the same page.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Total disclosure:\u00a0 If anybody buys a copy of this book, $20 goes to Blurb (the printer) and $5 goes to me.\u00a0 The printing fee charged by Blurb is not negotiable (though they do sometimes offer discount coupons).\u00a0 I tacked on just $5 for myself because I could not imagine anyone paying more than $25 for a small book that is just 7 inches square and 80 pages.\u00a0\u00a0 . . .\u00a0 Checking Blurb just now, it seems their prices have increased by $3, meaning the book is now $27.95.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
