The essence of successful tree growing is choosing the right tree for the purpose and the climatic and physical restraints of the sites. This comprehensive New Zealand guide has been designed for the home gardener, owners of lifestyle blocks and farmers, and those with an interest in amenity horticulture and conservation. A reference section provides brief descriptions of over 400 commercially available tree genera, species and cultivars, whilst tables list trees suitable for shelter, coastal sites, wet areas, attracting birds, dry soils, and revegetation.
