An invaluable alphabetical tree directory, including temperate and tropical trees, conifers and palms, is also included, giving horticultural information on reliable species and cultivars, growing requirements, season of interest, height and spread, and hardiness. This authoritative illustrated reference, with over 800 colour photographs, is the most comprehensive general sourcebook available and a classic reference for all gardeners.
