wildflower guide books organize flowers by their colors. – sighting from Carol Ginsburg.

Although there are guidebooks that specify types of flowers over colors, color recognition is the most direct way to identify the extensive variety of wildflowers.

A quote from the Peterson Field Guides Wildflowers:
“White or Whitish Flowers - This is the largest category, but not always a clear-cut one. Some white or whitish flowers may be tinged with the faintest suggestion of yellow, pink, or greenish which may be ignored. Others may have such a strong tinge that they may be repeated under one or another of those colors“
