The Essential Tree Selection Guide : for climate resilience, carbon storage, species diversity and other ecosystem benefits - Sjöman, Henrik; Anderson, Arit (s.l. : Filbert Press, 2023)
There has never been a better time to plant trees. As well as playing a vital role in the health of the natural world and of us humans, these essential life-giving plants also deliver a vast array of hidden benefits such as cooling shade, rainfall interception and carbon capture – but only if we plant the right tree in the right place. At the heart of the book is a unique A-Z Tree Directory representing more than 550 trees chosen for their ecosystem benefits, resilience and a host of other criteria that will ensure their continuing contribution to our future gardens and landscapes. A further quick-reference Tree Selection Table provides key attributes for each species at a glance. This exciting new tree selection guide marks a step change in approach that will lead to successful outcomes for trees and a better environment for future generations.(from publisher)
