Finished
Every spare moment since summer I had been editing the second edition of my wildflower book. And now North Central Texas Wildflowers, Second Edition is finished! The paper book will be available for purchase on Amazon on Monday, December 11, 2023. However the pdf is now available for free.
The second edition has 427 species and 1703 photos. That is 83 additional species and 406 more photos!
Featuring Shirley on the back cover was a no brainer. She had influenced and mentored so many of us. Thank you Shirley!
And a big thank you to my family for the suggestions and editing assistance!
And of course to my botany friends, thank you!

Looking forward to the book. Thanks for honoring Shirley. The pics are the way i remember her. Very sweet lady. I think everyone who knew her loved her.
Judy, thank you for sharing that video of the hairy woodpecker. That’s one smart bird!
I certainly loved Shirley!
I’m so excited for you and to get my 2nd Edition. I love my 1st Edition – always my “go-to” for ID and education.
Thank you!
Yahoo, Mary! Congratulations on completing your work! It’s so lovely that Shirley is featured on the back cover too.
Thank you!
And the Dune puffball is very cool – I love the name shaihuludii. That is a great set of books.
Kudos on the book! You definitely need to celebrate. Will be dow loading the digital.
Fun watching the woodpecker!
That woodpecker and hawk were cool. Thanks again to Judy!
