Hardiness and growth of woody ornamental plants. Volume IV, REPLOQ results and recommendations / principal authors : Claude Richer, Jacques-André Rioux, Chantal Gauthier, in collaboration with Raymond...: A22-233/2001-4E-PDF

"The results and recommendations presented in this report are intended to provide more detailed information about the behaviour and hardiness of various woody plant species and cultivars evaluated over a five-year period. For each species, we provide a description as well as the plant's climatic and soil requirements. We also include the findings on winter damage and growth obtained during our testing. In this volume, a new way of defining the hardiness of woody plants developed by REPLOQ is based on three aspects; a rating for survival, for use and for a full ornamental potential which is described in page vi"--Information on REPLOQ testing, page viii.
