The Kew Gardener's Guide to Growing Trees: The Art and Science to grow with confidence by Tony Kirkham

★★★★★  The publisher provided a copy for review before publication.

When you need an expert, you need look no further than Kew's gardens and greenhouses. Part of a series published by master gardeners directing the flourishing of the Kew Eden, this book will give you confidence to choose, buy, and plant trees in your own spaces.

What I enjoyed was the step-by-step assumption that everyone can learn and appreciate gardens and their components. Kirkham explores the lovely giants that give our yards and businesses structure and backdrops for other plantings. Dive in as deep as you want, or just flip through the pages to the section that applies to you.

Whether you have good intentions for green spaces as an experienced or beginner gardener, (or if you just want a yard to relax in), whether you have a green, brown, or killer "thumb" when it comes to plants, you'll want this book on your shelf. Kirkham starts with shapes or growth and leaves, types of trees and habitats, and moves through the process of nurturing beauty overhead. Recommended.
