A guide to 150 stunning, new and unusual trees and shrubs
The Year in Trees looks beyond the old standards of trees, shrubs, and vines that dominate our landscapes. Authors J. C. Raulston and Kim Tripp participated in the North Carolina State University (NCSU) Arboretum’s trials of more than 9,000 new and unusual woody plants from all over the world. This book is part of their effort to spread the word about high-quality woody landscape plants that, in Raulston’s words, "deserve a chance in our gardens." It contains 150 plant portraits divided into four parts corresponding to the seasons, to help readers to select the appropriate tree or shrub. Each portrait offers a thorough description of a particular plant and its relatives, provides cultural, hardiness, and propagation information, and offers tips for the best ways to use it in gardens. Many excellent photographs, most of them taken by Raulston, show each subject at its best. The Year in Trees will help gardeners throughout the country find exciting new plants to enliven the landscape.
