We Speak for the Trees

This book contains detailed information on almost 100 ornamental, fruit and nut trees selected for climate suitability, shade, habitat protection and bushfire prevention. Each tree listed in this book is growing in one of The Diggers Foundation gardens, so we have gained valuable first-hand knowledge through planting, trialling and careful study over more than 45 years. Information gathered over this journey has enabled us to compile a list of the best trees for Australian gardeners. Inspired by David Attenborough and renowned Australian climate experts, Clive Blazey's eighth book is a gardener's guide to achievable solutions for the global climate change crisis. Planting trees and gardening sustainably are some of the simplest solutions for carbon drawdown. First published in 2021.
