The Tree In My Garden by Dk, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Understand the natural history of garden trees and what they can do for our well-being and the environment. Discover what a well-chosen garden tree can do for local wildlife, your well-being, and the future of the planet. The Tree in My Garden reveals the amazing natural history of garden and yard trees and what they can do to support local ecological systems. It suggests how you can help your tree attract more wildlife. And it draws on recent research to explain how trees improve your well-being and, positioned carefully, can help you reduce you home's carbon footprint. If you don't have a tree, or there is space to plant more, this book helps you select the best for your space with an at-a-glance "tree chooser," followed by an illustrated catalog with all you need to know about each tree: not just the dimensions, sustainable and organic growing and care requirements, and points of seasonal interest, but also the wildlife that you can expect to attract. The Tree in My Garden is like no other gardening book. Inspired by the best-selling Hidden Life of Trees, it takes a more practical angle and shows what you can do in your small patch for trees and the life that they support. With evocative text and charming illustrations, The Tree in My Garden tells you everything you need to know about trees. | The Tree In My Garden by Dk, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
