Description

New Trees complements the existing standard encyclopaedic references to trees by Bean and Krussmann, providing comprehensive botanical descriptions and horticultural commentary on over 800 tree species introduced to cultivation in recent decades, for which there is no comparable source of information. Commissioned and produced by the International Dendrology Society, this major reference work covers species grown in the United Kingdom, Europe and North America, with horticultural notes from a network of growers and enthusiasts backed up by recent scientific studies.

The resulting accounts are packed with information presented in an accessible style.

The book is illustrated with over a hundred line drawings by Hazel Wilks, and 580 photographs, portraying many rarely seen trees.

Introductory chapters discuss conservation issues and modern techniques of tree-growing as well as a background to the species accounts.

A unique feature is the cross-referencing to other texts, making it easy to locate information on species not described here.

There is a comprehensive glossary and bibliography.
