Trees and shrubs are the staples of any garden, providing a framework around which to plan form, colour, design and character.
This book is a comprehensive guide to choosing, planting and caring for over 500 native and exotic species - plants to suit every type of Australian garden, from the Top End to Tasmania.
Leading horticulturalist Allen Gilbert tells us where and how to grow each plant and how to balance the needs of humans with the needs of plants and animals. All of the trees and shrubs found in typical backyards are covered, as well as many lesser-known species.
With the help of the book you'll be able to design a garden that is varied and colourful, suits your needs and is environmentally friendly.
