Tree planting and care have been important to Nebraskans since the days of J. Sterling Morton. Our native and planted trees provide us with wind protection, shad, fruit, wood, and beauty. In order to know what trees to plant, and to properly manage existing trees, you need to know the conditions they require. Individual types of trees, or species, have differeing needs for water, light, nutrients and soil.
This manual will show you how to identify 97 tree species by comparing leaves, twigs, fruit, bark and other parts. You will learn how to look at and compare those parts and how to use a chichotomous key to identify species.
