Download or read book How to Know Wild Fruits a Guide to Plants When Not in Flower by Means of Fruit and Leaf Classic Reprint written by Maude Gridley Peterson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Know Wild Fruits a Guide to Plants When Not in Flower, by Means of Fruit and Leaf I have attempted to deal with those plants only which bear attractively colored fruits. These fruits are the more noticeable ones; they do not, in most cases, develop until the blossoms have entirely disappeared; and they naturally fall into a class by themselves, being adapted for the same method of seed dispersal. The list will naturally include herbs, shrubs, and trees. A guide based on the kind and strue ture of the fruit will aid in determining the family to which a plant belongs, and under each family the species are grouped by colors. The illustrations will also aid in identifying specimens. If the acquaintance of approximately two hundred plants of our northeastern section in their fruited stage is made more accessible; if added attention is attracted to the result of the work of the flower, making our knowledge of the cycle of the plant's life more complete, the work, fragmentary though it he, may have a place.
