Ornamental Conifers for Australian Gardens follows in the tradition of Ray Rowell's three classic books, Ornamental Trees in Australia, Ornamental Shrubs in Australia and Ornamental Flowering Plants in Australia.
In this volume each species is listed under its botanic and common names, and precise information is given on identification, cultivators, suitable climatic conditions and soils, and methods of management. Each species described is accompanied by a drawing of its shape, which is important to garden design; also full colour photographs of native and exotic conifers complement the text. The volume introduces a fresh design to the series.
