Handbook of Trees and Shrubs For the Southern Hemisphere

Richmond E Harrison

With Trees and Shrubs in hand every gardener may now:

1. Identify the trees and shrubs that he sees
2. Name hem accurately
3. Know with reasonable certainty those that may be grown in his locality
4. Select for height, flowering season and colour, hardiness, and other factors
5. Refer to detailed cultivation notes and propagation requirements

The book has been presented in the alphabetical sequence of an encyclopedia, which indeed it is, but useful appendices enable the reader to relate old and new names, or to select plants in selective listings according to their general characteristics.
