Tree Identification Guide Book Available

What Tree Is That?, a pocket guide for identifying trees, is available from The National Arbor Day Foundation. The 72-page guide helps readers identify 135 different trees found in the eastern and central United States.

Well-known trees are included: oaks, maples, spruces, and pines. Species such as horse chestnut and mockernut hickory, sassafras and shadbush, persimmon and paw-paw and pagoda tree and pecan are also identified.

Dozens of drawings illustrate the trees’ leaves or needles and their acorns, berries, seed pods, cones, and other identifying features. What Tree Is That? is organized to make it easy to identify trees in a simple step-by-step fashion.
