Good source of information and many excellent photographs. One thing lacking though was information on how invasive a particular plant may be. This is a topic of particular concern to those of us who live near sensitive environmental regions.

A great guide to commonly available trees and shrubs. Offers practicalities such as palnting and pruning techniques and information on growth patterns and ideal uses. Tons of colour photos to illustrate how each interacts within the landscape.

If you are looking to plant trees, this book has some of the finest pictures and guides. Great coffee table book.

Helpful and informative, this guided us to the best hedge plant for our landscape. Full-color photos, and a good section on plants that are deer-resistant.
