Color of Ohio Flowers. 
59 
It will be seen from this table that the percentage of green 
flowers among the inconspicuous is much higher than among the 
conspicuous, while the percentage of flowers of each of the other 
colors falls a little below the percentage of those of the same 
color among the conspicuous flowers. 
In the following tables the principal division is made with 
regard to the time of blooming, the three seasons, spring, summer 
and fall, being used. While a few species are found in bloom in 
the winter it was not considered necessary to keep a record of 
them.
