Excerpt from Practical Forestry: A Treatise on the Propagation, Planting, and Cultivation, With a Description, and the Botanical and Popular Names of All the Indigenous Trees of the United States, Both Evergreen and Deciduous, Together With Notes on a Large Number of the Most Valuable Ex
Book of Evergreens, by Josiah Hoopes, to which I have called especial attention in the Chapter on Conifera. I have endeavored to give proper credit to the first describer of the species, but may in some instances have failed in this, owing to the confusion existing in regard to this matter in some of our botanical works.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive guide to gardening and cultivating forest trees. It was written for the average reader, which the author assumes will have little to no prior knowledge on the subject. The author himself has a lifetime of professional experience in the area, and he writes in a very engaging and knowledgeable tone. Many of the methods the author suggests are fairly common knowledge even for beginning gardeners. However, he does an excellent job at explaining the reasons behind the methods, how they work, and what the overall goal of each technique is. By learning the "why" behind the "how", the reader is better equipped to troubleshoot any problems that arise in their own garden and make informed decisions. The author not only tells the reader what to do but also what not to do, and he provides a multitude of real-world examples, which are quite interesting. He also provides a lot of historical context for each species, which is nice for readers who are interested in gardening and landscaping on a larger scale. 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. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781330372739_0
