A living legacy : remarkable trees of Canada's capital / Suzanne Hardy.: W93-48/2020E-PDF
"The forests of the Capital abound with hidden gems. The tremendous diversity of tree species that thrive within these forests tell the story of our culture and history. We have gathered close to 170 examples of the most remarkable trees in a compilation entitled A Living Legacy: Remarkable Trees of Canada's Capital. The trees that we selected are outstanding because of their age, size or other characteristics. Some are remnants of ancient forests, while others date back to the very first projects aimed at beautifying the Capital. The trees described in the book are easy to access on foot or by bike. Most of them can be found in Gatineau Park, as well as in the Greenbelt and urban parks, including the Dominion Arboretum at the Central Experimental Farm"--Provided by publisher.
