It describes the plants of the region's temperate rainforests, dry-belt lowland forests, cool subalpine forests, and non-forested habitats from tidewater to alpine, including some common introduced species. The species descriptions are packed with colour photos, range maps, and illustrations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePlants of the Pacific Coast is organized by life form so that species that resemble one another appear in the same group.

The field guide's opening section includes an introduction to the region's physical environment; a description of its plant cover; an overview of regional biodiversity, ecological resilience, and climate change; and an exploration of regional ethnobotany, with insights into Indigenous plant knowledge, uses, and ecosystem management. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive guide includes up-to-date taxonomy, keys, hundreds of colour photos, ethnobotanical essays, and engaging notes.
