30 Trees and why Landscape Architects love them. 2023. 221 (159 col.) figs. 232 p. Hardcover.

Presents the favorite trees of 30 internationally successful landscape architects. They describe the properties that embody the essence of these trees, the designed landscapes that they associate with the trees, and the use of the trees in the realized projects.

These personal insights are complemented by five scientific essays on criteria such as typology, ecology, care and seasons that are crucial in selecting trees for the landscape. The book also contains a botanical description of each species mentioned.

The result is a compendium of findings about tree species and knowledge about the use of trees in landscape architecture - just as interesting for designers as for laypeople.
