Reviews

.. .An invaluable guide for any homeowner in the Midwest. --Current Books on Gardening and Botany, Chicago Botanic Garden


There are encyclopedia types of books that list all possible trees.... Zanon has taken a different approach and compiled an excellent reference for desirable trees for the landscape. Dr. Steven Still, executive director, Perennial Plant Association and emeritus professor, Ohio State University.


This book is a valuable guide for the professional as well as the new homeowner. This is substance, not flash. The choices show considerable experience with the trees discussed. Ken Frieling, founder and owner, Glasshouse Works
