Â ¶ Homer Doliver House (1878-1949) was State Botanist from 1914-1948. Many consider Dr. House's greatest contribution to be this beautifully illustrated two volume set. An experimental printing of four plates was made in the Report of 1915. The full text and 264 quarto plates printed in a four-clor process was published in 1918 as Memoir 15 of the State Museum. The term 'wild flowers' reffered mainly to the conspicuous-flowered herbs. The beautiful natural color plates had the effect of setting the standard of excellence for many flower books that were to follow. The common and scientific name of each plant is provided.
