I live in Virginia so when I saw this book it was a "must have." It has great photographs of the trees and shrubs, showing both the full size plant as well as close-ups of the leaves and either flowers or fruits. Information is given around how large the plants get, colors and shapes of leaves, pace of growth and other interesting facts. One thing that especially drew me to this book was that when a plant is non-native, they let you know by saying it was introduced from Asia or Europe or wherever. They also give some ideas such as plant x can be grown well into hedges or fruits are made into jellies, etc.
Excellent photography

This book helps to easily identify the various species of trees and shrubs that occur in the Virginia area. The descriptions are short, to the point and easily understood. Any one can enjoy this book and it is small enough to take on nature walks with the kids, or grandkids. In a very short time it makes even a notice seem like an expert in tree identification.
