Along with the article is a review of the book "North American Landscape
Trees"
by Arthur Lee Jacobson. This is an excellent "encyclopedic' guide to
cold hardy trees planted in North America. In addition to wonderful
descriptions and pictures the book includes a lot of horticultural
history and other miscellaneous facts about many of the trees included.
