More than half of Pennsylvania is covered in forests, most of it being rich hardwood with trees such as maple, beech, and oak. In dry, upland areas, towering state tree Eastern Hemlock grows, as do several species of pines. Wet, low-lying areas are dominated by willows, dogwoods, and alders. At higher altitudes in the Appalachians, state flower Mountain-laurel dazzles in the spring. There are more than 3,400 vascular plants in the Keystone State, making it a great place to explore and learn about flora. Such a high diversity can make botanical study challenging, so it helps to have a portable reference to focus on a smaller group of representative species.
