Description



Book Synopsis



Established in 1876, Mount Pleasant Cemetery is a plant lover's paradise in the middle of Canada's largest city, Toronto. It is ecologically important, acting as a carbon sink as well as one of the country's largest arboretums. Its hundreds of varieties of trees represent all the species that can grow in this area of Canada, including very rare species, and the cemetery is renowned for its picturesque landscaping and beautifully maintained grounds, making it a desirable place for both locals and visitors to explore.

In Trees and Shrubs of Mount Pleasant Cemetery, author and photographer Janet Davis captures the magic of the cemetery's flora through the seasons, from early spring cherry blossoms and summer hydrangeas, to the brilliant colors of fall and, at last, the soaring conifers that stand out against the snowy backdrop of winter. Beginning with a brief introduction to the cemetery and its dedicated teams of arborists and gardeners, this handsome guide introduces you to hundreds of plant species that call Mount Pleasant Cemetery home -- doing so through lively, detailed captions and breathtaking photographs.

This book, small enough to tuck into a bag, will aid you in identifying and enjoying all the plants and trees you will encounter on your next visit to Mount Pleasant as well as enhance your encounters with the same plants elsewhere. It will also cover topics, such as animals, birds, diseases and pests, and it includes an arboretum map and several lists of plants to look for.
