5.0 out of 5 stars
Detailed, practical guide
Very comprehensive, detailed, informative, and practical guide/reference source for information on trees and shrubs in the Pacific Northwest. From the amount of information in the book probably only very little is missing. Even though it is small print, very dense, very few illustrations, it is nevertheless very readable. Very well done.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Informative, but how will it look in my garden?
Although the information in the book is detailed, more pictures are needed to give some idea how these trees and shrubs might actually enhance a garden. The photos contained in the book are sparse and are entirely in black and white. Pictures in books? Generally not needed, but in a gardening book, good graphics are essential.

Good reference for PNW woodland gardeners,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Trees and Shrubs for Pacific Northwest Gardens (Hardcover)
Book hard to find - but Amazon has on used book list. Order revised edition, think it is 1990 version. Lots of basic help for those of us taming or creating our own woodlands gardens and trying to sort through what we have growing wild, what to edit, what is invasive, placement for sun, soil, water conditions. Written in the 1940s and updated by hands-on garden experts Uof W and Seattle. I view it as a core reference.
