What reading level is Wild Flowers East of the Rockies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The leaves are dark glossy green, pointed at each end and oblong in shape; they are arranged alter- nately along the branches and in dense terminal clus- ters. The flowers are very peculiar in their construc- tion, the corolla being deep saucer or bowl-shaped, with five short, broad lobes; on the outside, around the bottom edge of the "bowl, " are ten small humps, that inside the corolla form little pockets to receive the anthers of the slender white stamens, curving from the center of the blos...som like the spokes of a wheel.
Both moths and bees visit these flowers in quest of the little supply of nectar that is secreted about the base of the greenish pistil. In order to get at it they alight right in the center of the flower, and pollen they may have brought from previous blos- soms visited, is quickly entangled on the sticky stig- ma. As they successively insert their proboscis be- tween the curved stamens, these become loosened from their little pockets and spring upwards, covering the under side of the visitor with a fresh supply of pollen to carry to another blossom.
