Opis

In the depths of the Cotswolds, near Tetbury in Gloucestershire, lies one of the most beautiful tree gardens in the world. Known as The Westonbirt Arboretum, it was borne of a Victorian passion for plant collecting. Here are around 15,000 trees, each one lovingly labelled. They offer the perfect, picturesque setting for escaping from the pressures of daily life.
Now, for the first time, 100 of the most popular British trees will form the basis of a beautiful pocket guide, The Tree Spotter's Guide. Illustrated with artwork depicting the tree and leaf, this covetable little book will inform and educate with wonderfully concise text by one of the world's leading tree experts from the Arboretum.
The book will make a great gift and family reference pocket guide to one of the most celebrated features of our landscape.
