Landscaping with Trees in the Midwest: A Guide for Residential and Commercial Properties Paperback – June 19, 2014

While I like the premise of the book and the tree selections and photos, it has one near fatal flaw. The tree information is printed in font that is too small and not highly readable against the image layer it is set against. This is a problem with a book of this nature that can be used as a quick reference. For a listing with a lot of information, such as flowering crabapple, it is downright irritating to try and read. Too big of a compromise for the small gain in artistry.

The format is the same for each tree which makes comparison easy

Good reference book with pertinent info about each species
