Overview

"A complete guide to selecting, planting and nurturing more than 1,000 ornamental varieties of trees and shrubs, this detailed reference was edited by a national authority on woody plants and features over 200 color photographs by acclaimed photographer Andrew Lawson. Trees & Shrubs offers up-to-the-minute guidance on how to use trees and shrubs as focal points in the garden - for fall color, flower or fruit display, as windbreaks, in urban areas and more; how to select the trees and shrubs most likely to thrive in your garden, taking into account garden design, climate and soil conditions; valuable cultivation advice such as planting guidelines, blooming seasons and hardiness ranges; and essential tips on pruning, propagation and using fertilizers and mulches effectively." "At the heart of the book is an extensive A-to-Z encyclopedia of more than 1,000 varieties of trees and shrubs available today-perennial favorites as well as unusual varieties that every gardener should know about. Each selection is listed by common name and Latin name and includes complete planting and cultivation information, with a detailed description of height, color and defining characteristics. A special rating system highlights outstanding plants noted for ease of care, hardiness or exceptional beauty." "Thoroughly cross-indexed for easy reference, Trees & Shrubs is the most complete and up-to-date treatment of the subject available in single volume today."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
