Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great buy, easy and very helpful with most of the most common species present. In a handy waterproof cover so definitely fieldwork-proof!

"Kids will find interesting and knowledge they will gain"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Pictures and information brilliant

"Not too heavy, not too light - just right!"
4 stars"

Great help, particularly for someone new to the country and without a clue what anything is! Not too much information to be confounding, entertaining enough for even my husband to spend an afternoon on the couch with, yet with enough information in there that I still havent quite decided which mountain beech I have in my garden. I expect it will be be with me for quite a long time.

Description

This new re-written edition of the best-selling NZ classic Which Native Tree? now includes comprehensive ecological information on the tree and its environment. As well as the known uses of each tree, from food and medicine, to dyes, perfume, honey, bootlaces, fire-making and timber it also explains how to grow each tree in your own garden. This new ecological edition also identifies the insect and bird life to look for in each tree and includes details on the origins of Maori names. Use Andrew Crowe's unique leaf key to confidently identify common New Zealand native trees. Colour photographs of leaves and associated creatures, graphics giving tree shape and height, tree distribution maps and ID checklists listing distinguishing features are all helpful tools to identify New Zealand's native trees.
