Correll and Marshall C. Johnson (1970) Manual of the Vascular Plants of Texas. Susan Sander was kind enough to verify and correct the various photo identifications where possible. I am much indebted to her for that and for field time chasing and identifying plants; but far more than that for being the primary source of an environmental conscience in Kerr County as a prolific writer and columnist, trip leader and educator, and founder and sole visionary of the Riverside Nature Center.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Texas Red Oak (Turkey Oak, Spanish Oak), </B><I>Quercus
