Short-Season, High-Altitude Gardening: Selecting, Planting, and Caring for Trees, Shrubs, Vines

BUL-0860

BY Stephen Love, Roger Wimpfheimer, Kathy Noble

April 6, 2009

Because they come in a variety of sizes and shapes, woody plants (trees, shrubs and vines) are unique landscape elements that can provide scale and balance, soften a building's hard edges and/or add texture and color. Containing detailed tables and plant descriptions, this 19-page publication (part of the Short-Season, High-Altitude Gardening series) will help you to choose and care for the ones best suited to your Idaho property.
