Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trees of New York State: Native and Naturalized In some cases the author has been in doubt as to just where to draw the line. The treatment throughout must be considered conservative. There are within the borders Of the state one hundred and thirty-three kinds Of trees exclusive Of Crataegus. Of these one hundred and nine may be considered as native and twenty-four as naturalized. Over two hundred species Of Crataegus have been described for New York State alone but these exhibit such a multitude Of bewildering forms as to be beyond the scope Of the bulletin. The inclusion Of Crataegus brings the total number Of native arborescent species well over three hundred and ranks New York State as one Of the richest in the Union in its arborescent flora. N O attempt has been made to include the shrubby plants Of the state in this publication. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This gorgeous book by naturalist and photographer Benjamin Swett offers stunning color photographs, personal narratives, and fascinating historical observations about a select few of the thousands of trees that thrive in the five boroughs—from the sprawling New York Botanical Garden in spring bloom to the snow-laden residential blocks of Queens in winter.

Download or read book Magnificent Trees of the New York Botanical Garden written by and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnificent Trees celebrates the 30,000 specimens that adorn the landscape of The New York Botanical Garden, a National Historic Landmark. This new visual tribute features lavish photographs by Larry Lederman accompanied by descriptions by Todd Forrest, Vice President for Horticulture and Living Collections at the Garden. Trees evoke wonder in all who observe them. They are at once visions of majesty, and symbols of shelter and peace. The beauty inherent in trees is both perennial and ever-changing; their shapes and colors transform in every change of season, in every sunrise and sunset. The New York Botanical Garden is recognized throughout the world for stewardship and connoisseurship of its vast collections, some in forests, some in groves, and some standing in solitary majesty. An authority on the diverse species present in the garden, Todd Forrest writes vividly about the Garden’s past, detailing the incredible histories of the trees in the collection—from their vital role in Native American life and culture, to their wartime function as neutral territory during the Revolutionary War. Each tree has a story to tell, and just as Forrest gives their collective past words, Lederman captures their grandeur in hundreds of stunning images. He portrays the diversity of this collection with photographs that reveal the trees in a myriad of fascinating perspectives: in landscape views that convey the Garden’s genius loci; portraits illustrating the architecture and profound visual impact of selected trees; remarkable details of flowers, fruit, bark and leaves; and impressionistic images, abstract in character but beautiful in composition.
