Summary: Has potential, leaves out fruit, nut trees and pruning bests
Comment: Ortho's All About Trees is almost a great book about trees except it left out many of the fruit and nut trees, and just gives a partial list of species! It also does not include some species that have more zone tolerant relatives. For example, there is a type of Holly (Princess Holly for example) that is Zone 3-8, yet the book leads you to think Hollies are only zone 6-9. Also, newer trees such as Hydrangea Trees are not mentioned. How can you have a book about trees without mentioning the apple tree or pear tree, etc? No major fruit or nut trees are really mentioned except one type of walnut tree. Huh? It also just has a partial section on pruning, and does not say what time of year to prune and suggests to prune in summer by a rendition of a tree with leaves on it--most pruning of trees is not supposed to be done during the summer according to Ortho's All About Pruning. Did All About Trees lose some pages and chapters?
A five-star otherwise...

Summary: Solid Book
Comment: Overall a solid book. Great information and pictures for how to select, plant, and care for trees. However, if you are looking for a book that will give you several trees that thrive in zones 9 and 10 (southern California), you'll need another book.
Rating: 5

Comment: This book has everything you need to know about tees.
