8 1/2 x 11 format - Sprial Bound to lay flat. Medicinal Plants, Trees, & Shrubs of Appalachia will teach you about plants of the Appalachian Region. This book has 105 plants with descriptions, color photos of each plant, and a space on the back to record your own notes. It tells when the plant flowers, what part is medicinal, when to gather it and how to use it. It describes each plants medicinal properties and what that property means, as well as a section on weights and measures, and dosages, plant parts, different types of preparations, a flowering calendar and a gathering calendar. I am in the process of video taping each plant in the book and will be offering a video on them in the near future.
