Pacific Coast Berry Finder: a pocket manual for identifying native plants with fleshy fruits by Glenn Keator, PhD, illustrated by Jeanne C. Koelling. Dichotomous key identifies plants with fleshy fruits (pomes, drupes, aggregates, accessory fruits, or true berries in botanical language). This includes the familiar plants that we think of as berries, like Raspberry or Wild Grape, but also many other plants with fleshy fruit, such as Ceanothus, Junipers, Prickly Pear, and Yucca. (Many of the plants identified have fruit that is known or suspected to be poisonous. This is not a guide to edible plants.) Covers California, Oregon and Washington, and would also be useful in BC, although the range maps stop at the border. Includes all native genera and some naturalized ornamentals. ISBN: 0-912550-02-3. 64 pages. #NASG0982 paper$3.95
