Wrangellian Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 (edited) I'm kind of curious about the same thing... I have a book called Common Fossil Plants of Western North America, 2nd Ed. (doesn't include TX or anywhere east of there) but I don't know if I would recommend it until they come out with a new edition with better pictures. The photos are pixelly but there are some decent drawings in there. I wonder if there is an Eastern N.A. version too.

Are you looking for plants of all ages, or that from a particular era?
