Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book is the last in a series of 17 papers detailing the silvical characteristics of important forest trees in the Central States region. It focuses on hackberry, a small to medium-sized tree also known as common hackberry, sugarberry, nettletree, and false elm, which is of minor importance as a timber tree. Despite its prevalence in various forest types, it is seldom recognized as a component due to its infrequent occurrence. The book delves into the diverse site conditions where hackberry thrives, from moist stream valleys to limestone outcrops. It explores the species' tolerance to a wide range of climatic conditions, including extreme temperature fluctuations and varying precipitation levels. The author examines hackberry's role in wildlife sustenance, with its fruit and nipple galls serving as food sources for various bird and mammal species. This book provides a comprehensive examination of hackberry's life history, from its flowering and seed production to its seedling development and growth patterns. The author discusses the factors that influence its establishment and growth, as well as the challenges it faces, such as insect infestations and susceptibility to fire damage. Through detailed analysis, the book also sheds light on the variability within the hackberry species, including recognized varieties and potential races. It examines the occurrence of witches' brooms, a unique characteristic that can be both aesthetically pleasing and ecologically significant. This book serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested in the ecology and management of hackberry in the Central States region. Its insights into the species' characteristics and habitat preferences contribute to a deeper understanding of forest ecosystems and the role of individual species within them. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
