Book Winter Botany a Companion Volume  to the Author s Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening

Download or read book Winter Botany a Companion Volume to the Author s Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening written by William Trelease and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winter Botany a Companion Volume, to the Author's Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening While at the University of Wisconsin, nearly forty years ago, I became interested in the differences by which woody plants may be recognized in winter-sometimes more surely than when in flower-and learned from Willkomm's excellent but inconveniently shaped book how readily these differences may be grouped for differential purposes.' A large collection of winter twigs was accumulated subsequently at the Missouri Botanical Garden, and I owe a lasting debt of gratitude to many friends-among them the even then venerable Dr. Chapman of Florida-who collected such material for me. Willkomm's book, like other contemporary publications of its kind, was confined to the commonest deciduous trees and shrubs of northern Europe. My intention at that time was to prepare a winter manual of the trees native to the Eastern United States, and illustrations of many of these were prepared by Miss Grace E. Johnson (now Mrs. George Clifford Vieh). For a variety of reasons, this undertaking was laid aside, and her skilful and expressive drawings remain unpublished except for those picturing Acer, Carya, Juglans and Leiineria. It is a pleasure. to record that though long out of practice, Mrs. Vieh has prepared for the engraver some of the simplified drawings now published.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries people have used trees, shrubs, and woody vines for food, clothing, ritual, construction, scientific study, and more. However, these important plants are easy to overlook during the winter months, when the absence of leaves, fruit, and other distinguishing characteristics makes them difficult to recognize.

Featuring color images of more than four hundred species, this detailed botanical resource provides keys to the genera and species, as well as descriptions of the genera. The species accounts include useful information on Latin meanings, common names, habitats and distributions, and notes on toxicity, nativity, rarity, and wetland status. In addition, authors Ronald L. Jones and B. Eugene Wofford provide notes on practical uses for the plants, including food, medicine, fiber, and weapons. Winter identification of woody plants can be a daunting exercise, but Jones and Wofford present clear and authoritative information that can help anyone spot these species in the wild. Whether taken into the field or enjoyed at home, Woody Plants of Kentucky and Tennessee: The Complete Winter Guide to Their Identification and Use is a comprehensive and accessible resource for professional and amateur botanists, students, commercial landscapers, homeowners, and outdoor enthusiasts.

Book Winter Botany a Companion Volume  to the Author s Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Winter Botany a Companion Volume to the Author s Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening Classic Reprint written by William Trelease and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winter Botany a Companion Volume, to the Author's Plant Materials of Decorative Gardening When my Plant Materials pocket manual was issued, in 1917, an, unusually full account was given of characters that are not mentioned in the usual handbooks, but the keys were based in large part on differences used by the old herbalists, position and other peculiarities of the foliage. The key of the present volume utilizes leaf-scar and bud differences in the same manner. Because the keys of the first volume are as available for coniferous evergreens in winter as in summer, this important group of trees is not considered here at all; but angiospermous evergreens and the few deciduous conifers are treated now in even greater fullness. To avoid unnecessary repetition, fam ily descriptions are not repeated here, and the generic charac ters are confined to the direct purpose of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The help you need identifying the dormant but visible vestiges of spring and summer wildflowers and other plants. When it was first published, Roger Tory Peterson said of Weeds and Wildflowers in Winter (originally published as Wildflowers and Winter Weeds), "this book will be a joy to those wood-walkers and strollers who have been puzzled by the skeletal remains of herbaceous plants that they see in winter." And indeed, it has been in print for decades, helping both wood-walkers and botanists identify and better understand the weeds we see in winter. This charming guide identifies more than 135 common species of wildflowers and weeds found in the northeastern United States. Each plant is superbly illustrated with a full-page drawing accompanied by an elegant description of the plant's key characteristics. In addition, a step-by-step key to plant identifications and an illustrated glossary of common plant parts and botanical terms make this book an even more valuable resource. If you've ever wanted to know what those plants you see sticking up out the snow are, you'll appreciate this lovely, useful book.
