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.\n\nWetlands 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.\n\nA more economical standard paper ink-jet style printed version is available as a separate listing.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0578863774\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0578863774.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kendig, Karen|Gianopulos, Kristie|Pyne, Milo\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
