  • A Priceless Repository of Botanical Information

    A monumental, cross referenced dictionary of North American plants and their uses. Dr. Moerman's decades long project has saved the knowledge - accumulated over 15,000+ years of human necessity, observation, trial, error and effort - from being lost . . . possibly forever.
