For a Canadian, it's refreshing to find a gardening book that doesn't assume that the world consists of the USA, leaving a blank expanse north of the border. This book, written in Canada, focuses entirely on species of trees, shrubs, and vines native to the Great Lakes area. If it grows in the American Midwest, it will definitely be found in this volume. Fortunately for those in other parts of Canada and the USA, many of these plants are found across the continent. For any plant that is covered in this book, it is an invaluable reference providing in-depth information on encouraging germination starting with tnhe stratification process through the protection of young trees. It is certainly one of the ten most important books in my horticultural library. ( ) See Growing Trees From Seed at From Word to Word inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
Native trees grow much faster than non-native trees. But even experienced horticulturists can be mystified about how nature sows and germinates seeds especially acorns and walnuts. Thanks to this book, any gardener can now grow trees from seeds within as little as ten years. The secrets are to know what seeds to collect and how to prepare and plant them. From their extensive knowledge, the authors guide the reader in identifying native trees, vines and shrubs and describe howto propagate them. Growing Trees from Seed covers the ecology, abundance, fruit characteristics and edibility of the more than 200 species discussed in this book. There is expert guidance on when to gather fruits, how to extract seeds from the fruit, and when and how to treat and germinate the seed, plus information on transplanting and expected growth rate. Alerts throughout the book identify closely related non-native species now common to various regions. Many illustrations and descriptions help the reader with plant identification. A seed-treatment guide provides a handy reference. Among the trees, vines and shrubs covered are: Alders Beeches Berries Birches Cedars Cherries Chestnuts Clematis Dogwoods Elms Firs and pines Hickories Junipers Laurels Maples Oaks Plums Poplars Spruces Walnuts Willows. There is no better guidebook on how to grow native trees from seed. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
