This guide describes, in pictures and words, all the different types of acacia trees that are such a distinctive feature of the Kenyan landscape. It shows both floral and vegetative characteristics - bark, leaves, pods, seeds - so that identification can easily be made even when the trees arenot in flower. This will be a valuable companion to anyone visiting or living in East Africa, and also to professional botanists, foresters, and ecologists. There are forty-four species of acacia in Kenya, out of twelve-hundred species globally, but they are of particular interest because they are both used by the local people and eaten by the wildlife. Acacias are also suited to commercial farming in arid conditions, which may be important if warmingtrends continue. The authors provide clear explanations of botanical terms, detailed field keys, and instructions for using the keys. No previous knowledge of plant sciences is required to enjoy this authoritative guide.

Southern Africa is home to more than 2,000 introduced (not indigenous) trees. These non-native species are encountered daily and form a familiar part of our urban landscapes, growing successfully in parks, gardens, along road sides, and in other open spaces. This guide features nearly 600 of the most common and familiar of these and, using the same model of identification as FG Trees of Southern Africa, facilitates ID based on leaf and stem features. The book provides the country of origin for each species and offers key information on cultivation and uses. Each entry is supported by colour images that depict key features, and a shaded map that shows the plant’s cold tolerance (where the species can grow). An essential guide for landscapers and gardeners as well as tree enthusiasts who will struggle to find these trees in their guide to indigenous trees.
