Christmas Trees; Growing and Selling ,Wreaths and Greens,
This review is from: Christmas Trees: Growing and Selling Trees, Wreaths and Greens (Paperback)
I purchased this book because I look after a few christmas trees at a local farm and I am interested in learning how to look after them and possibly being able to grow even more .
It should be pointed out this book although clearly for the American public is a very interesting and worthwhile read , and it is very ,very informative on where you should plant you crop, of trees ,and how to raise them and what to look out for where pests are concerned but some of these pests maybe confined to the American crop ,it does give you information on different types of christmas tree and which to choose given the climate . and what to feed your crop and aftercare.

The BEST book on this subject!,
By John Schmeltz - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Christmas Trees: Growing and Selling Trees, Wreaths and Greens (Paperback)
Although this book seems more designed to educate the novice at growing Christmas trees, I believe everyone, even people currently in this business, can learn something valuable from it. It is well written and enjoyable to read, plus informative in that it describes all sorts of trees used, planting methods, protection and care of seedlings and transplants, recommendations for planting locations, and a whole host of other information. I attribute this book to getting me interested in this field as a hobby. Recommend it very highly!

Quick Read,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Christmas Trees: Growing and Selling Trees, Wreaths and Greens (Paperback)
This was a good book for the novice with no experience in the tree industry. It was a quick read and enjoyable. But not for someone in who works in the field already.
