Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Handbook of the Trees of the Northern States and Canada: East of the Rocky Mountains
The shortness of the period, too, during which the ?owers or fruits of certain trees are in their prime, or even exist on the trees, has necessitated close watch. The exact time must' be ascertained by observation, and if, perchance, I miss it I must wait until another year for another opportunity. Then I may find it an off year (imagine my disappointment I), and still another year must be waited. Procuring specimens from lofty tree-tops are trivial ordeals compared with instances like these. Add to these vicissitudes the distribution of our trees.
