WILLOWS by Christopher Newsholme

This classic text on Willows is now in paperback for the first time. It offers the reader a comprehensive world-wide survey of willows (Genus Salix), extending from tiny alpine and arctic plants to the huge specimen trees found in water meadows, including essential botanical distinguishing features and a full glossary. The book covers: Introduction, with details on the origin and global distribution of willows; General characteristics of willows, with alternative names included to avoid confusion; Management and cultivation of willows, with details on propagation, soil, cuttings and pruning; Willows for specific sites: gardens, parks and estates; small gardens; rock gardens; and sink gardens.
Christopher Newsholme has been studying the willow genus in the field and from publications since 1972. Since then he has progressively collected willows from many sources in different parts of the world, and now holds an Official National Collection of Willows in the United Kingdom. He lives in Devon.
