America%u2019s native wild flowers take on a special meaning this spring as the bulldozers continue to roll into wild or open land at an alarming rate. Some of these wild flowers are now on the verge of extinction, others are becoming uncommon.Gardeners are responding with a new interest in growing native plants in the home garden. This is one way to insure the survival of endangered species, providing collecting is done so as not to strip the countryside. Better yet, from the point of view of conservation, many gardeners are turning to wild-flower nurseries, of which there are about fifty in the United States that carefully propagate and ship plants by mail to homeowners.With the protection of rare native plants in mind, theBrooklyn Botanic Garden has just revised one of the classics in its Handbook series. GARDENING WITH WILD FLOWERS, a 97-page issue, has information-packed articles by 23 leading authorities from every geographical region of the country. The articles have been w ritten especially for the homeowner who wants to grow and preserve native plants instead of just to admire the dwindling natural pageant of field and forest.All these Handbooks are copiously illustrated paperbacks printed on quality book paper and, like the other fifty titles described in the Garden%u2019s attractive new brochure, are modestly priced at $1.50 each. The new brochure is free for the asking. The Handbooks are available in many garden centers, or they can be ordered direct by mail.
