Lesser Known Texas Natives

Lesser Known Texas Natives is a supplemental reference for selected Texas Hill Country native plants that are not as well known as the more familiar wildflowers. These plants are not rare or endangered but are found in various habitats throughout the Hill Country.  

This book includes species omitted from many field guides.  Information for each plant includes an “at-a-glance” description with key characteristics helpful for plant identification.  The description is accompanied by multiple images, highlighting the characteristics.

Plant information is presented in sequence by the plant’s common name.  To facilitate searches in alternate sequences, cross reference lists by bloom color, bloom period, and plant family are also provided.
