Trees of Missouri
2003
Kurz, Donald R.
This book provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of the 167 trees that grow in Missouri--plus information on another 37 tree species. The author has included descriptions of each tree's habitat and range, in addition to its physical characteristics. Many entries include information about trees' historical medicinal uses, their benefits to wildlife and the origins of their scientific names. Trees of Missouri also contains special features that will help make identification easier; for example, a detailed illustrated section compares leaves and acorns of the many species of oaks. Also included are illustrations of the reproductive cycles of oaks and hickories, and a taxonomic key for identifying different species. --Publisher's description.
