An informative, beautifully illustrated guide that celebrates the positive impact gardeners can make by planting just one tree

One tree, in one garden. Can it really make a difference?

In RHS The Tree in My Garden, award-winning wildlife author Kate Bradbury reveals the amazing effect planting a single tree in your garden can have - and dares to imagine what would happen if every gardener up and down the country did the same. Combining practical gardening advice, eye-opening scientific research, reflections on the cultural importance of different species, and evocative accounts of how vital trees are for countless different forms of wildlife, this book will leave you in no doubt that every garden needs a tree.

The book features a directory of 50 key species, each one beautifully illustrated by Lucille Clerc and packed with information about each tree's appearance, care needs, carbon sequestration ability, and the wildlife it supports.

No garden should be without a tree. Plant one, watch it grow - and become part of something bigger.

Reviews for RHS The Tree in My Garden: Choose One Tree, Plant It - and Change the World

With the exception of the smallest plots, I'm in complete agreement with the author that no garden is complete without at least one tree. This book harnesses Bradbury's expertise and eloquent style, and encourages us to choose a tree with wildlife in mind, from a useful selection of garden-worthy suggestions. A message that's further enhanced by Lucille Clerc's enchanting illustrations. -- Rachel de Thame * The Sunday Times *
