Prairie Plants of the University of Wisconsin--Madison Arboretum
Author: Theodore S. Cochrane
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
A pioneer and leader in the preservation and restoration of native Midwest prairies since the 1930s, the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum has a stellar collection of prairie plant species, including horsetails, ferns, rushes, sedges, grasses, shrubs, vines, and wildflowers. This guide illustrates and describes more than 360 native and introduced species that grow and bloom on the Arboretum prairies and also briefly discusses or mentions many additional species, infraspecific taxa, and hybrids. Its intent is to increase awareness and respect for remaining small prairie remnants, motivate readers to work for prairie preservation and restoration, and encourage the planting of native species in yards and gardens. Botanist and taxonomist Theodore S. Cochrane has written the text to engage a variety of readers: prairie enthusiasts, gardeners, amateur botanists, younger students learning about plants, and college students and professionals. Nomenclature follows in part the new APG classification system. Richly illustrated with detailed color photographs by Claudia S. Lipke and botanical illustrations and maps by Kandis Elliot, the guide provides a beautiful and informative sample of the flora of the Arboretum and of the southern Wisconsin prairie landscape. Many of the plants, of course, are also found throughout the upper Midwestern United States and in adjacent southern Canada.

The Response of Weeds
Author: Bertrand Bickersteth
Publisher: Crow Said Poetry
ISBN: 9781988732794
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Winner of the 2021 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award! Winner of the Stephan G. Stephansson Award for Poetry Winner of a 2021 High Plains Book Award for First Book! Finalist for the 2020 City of Calgary W.O. Mitchell Book Prize! A 2020 CBC Poetry Book of the Year! Finalist for a 2021 High Plains Book Award for Poetry Bertrand Bickersteth's debut poetry collection explores what it means to be black and Albertan through a variety of prisms: historical, biographical, and essentially, geographical. The Response of Weeds offers a much-needed window on often overlooked contributions to the province's character and provides personal perspectives on the question of black identity on the prairies. Through these rousing and evocative poems, Bickersteth uses language to call up the contours of the land itself, land that is at once mesmerizing as it is dismissively effacing. Such is black identity here on this paradoxical land, too.
