Manual of Woody Landscape Plants: Their Identification, Ornamental Characteristics, Culture, Propagation and UsesEach plant type (taxon) is discussed in a defined sequence and usually accompanied by a line drawing and identification characteristics related to leaf, bud, and stem. Certain plants are discussed under the heading RELATED SPECIES. This approach was taken to avoid repetition and at the same time allow for a significantly greater number of plant discussions. However, not all plants discussed under RELATED SPECIES are perfect taxonomic "fits." |
