Sappi Tree Spotting is a new, easy method of tree identification, written for the beginner and the tree enthusiast. It won't take long before you are able to recognise almost three-quarters of the actual trees you see in the Lowveld. The book is based on a number of innovative concepts:

  • Trees are classified by where they grow e.g. rocky hills or river edges.
  • Clear Search Images (visual images) are created of the features of the trees in each area.
  • Trees are identified by their Striking Features eg. pods, flowers, bark, canopy and shape.
  • Simple tree terminology makes the text immediately understandable.

The book covers the most common trees of the lowveld with beautiful full colour artwork.

Innovative, accurate maps provide location and geological information.

Colour-coding lists the likely trees you will encounter in each area.

Easy-to-use information includes height, shade-density, seasonal changes, animal and human uses (both modern and traditional) and gardening possibilities.

Distribution maps show where the trees can be found elsewhere in South Africa.
