It depends a lot on what part of the globe you are interested. The
references for Australia are totally different then those for China,
California or Pennsylvania. Are you interested in ornamentals, fruit
trees or native trees?

Thanks much, both of you. Our home here in NC (USA) has such beautiful,
tall trees and I have never been able to identify any but a few of them. So
yes, the East side of the USA trees.

The UNC Chapel Hill has an excellent website for trees in your area at:

If you want a good pocket guide to your local trees, check out:

or the third mouse gets the cheese, if there are two cats. (n+1 mouse gets
the cheese,if there are n cats. eventually the late late late mouse may
obtain the cheese early the next morning, so who knows what happens to the
worm)

'Peterson's Field Guide' series are very good.
