Handbook of Trees and Shrubs Edited by Julie Grace

In plain language this book tells the reader how to recognise and name accurately some 2,400 trees and shrubs; how to cultivate and propagate them successfully; how to select for height, flowering season, colour and hardiness.

With more than 400 black & white photographs, as well as new colour plates, the plants are arranged in alphabetical order for easy reference, with a comprehensive table of common names and synonyms as well as lists of subjects which thrive in certain conditions.

For the home gardener, as for the professional horticulturalist, this book is a gold-mine of inspiration and is a "must have" book.
