Industry Reviews "I fell in love with many of my favorite trees all over again and found new ones I had to see, if not possess. The attention to correct color, names, and good photos makes this a dream book for those of us who see our gardens as works of art." Fine Gardening - Nancy Fiers (04/01/2002)
