Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive encyclopedia of trees and shrubs developed with the aim of helping the non-specialist identify British species. It provides botanical descriptions, complemented by detailed illustrations and photographs, and is one of the only such works to include woody plants that are of non-native origin. It draws on information from herbaria and botanical gardens to present a definitive source of information. The author has made a distinct effort to compile a wide range of species so that the book will be useful no matter where you are in the British Isles, including rare and unusual species as well as popular ones. The book is extensively cross-referenced to make finding the information you need easy. An introductory section provides background information on the layout and how to use the book. The species descriptions include detail on size, flowering period, and preferred location, and are grouped by family in order to make comparisons between species easier. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
