The descriptions of each plant are written in nontechnical language requiring neither background information about plant structure nor the use of a glossary or diagram.

Includes bibliographical references and index.About the guide -- General wetland types in North Carolina -- Plant terminology -- Trees -- Shrubs -- Ferns -- Monocot herbs -- Dicot herbs -- Vines -- Aquatics -- Common confusions."This fully illustrated guide provides information for identifying over 200 species of plants commonly found in North Carolina's Mountain, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain wetlands. It is designed for anyone interested in the state's wetland flora and contains: Organization by plant type; Key features to look for, along with similarities and differences with other species; Maps showing relative commonness by North Carolina ecoregions; Status Information from the National Wetland Plant List; Habitat information; Commonly confused plants section. The composition of plants found in any environment can provide information on the type of habitat present. Water-loving (hydrophytic) plants can indicate that water is present long enough to form and sustain a wetland habitat. Most of the plants in this guide are water-loving, while others can survive equally well in wetlands as in other moist or dry habitats. Wetlands are valuable ecosystems that store and purify water, control flooding, produce food, serve as wildlife habitat, and provide recreational opportunities. Being able to identify the special plants that live in North Carolina's productive and dynamic wetland ecosystems is one way to gain a greater appreciation for their diversity and all they have to offer."--Cover.
