Benut ons Inheemse Bome is ongetwyfeld die nuttigste en mees praktiese boek wat oor die onderwerp in Suid-Afrika gepubliseer is.
Making the most of Indigenous Trees is undoubtedly the most significant, useful and practical book ever to be published on this subject in South Africa. This third and revised edition contains 22 more tree species. The 163 tree species are alphabetically arranged according to the botanical name, illustrated with more than 850 photographs in full colour and discussed in detail. The following information is provided: An introduction section on tree propagation by seed, cuttings and truncheons. A detailed species description, diagnostic features, natural distribution and habitat. The ecological role and utilisation by mammals, birds and insects. Economic value and use by people, including use in gardens and on the farm, as a source of food for humans and animals, fibre and medicine. Properties of the wood and its utilisation by people. Specific guidelines on propagation and cultivation of each species. A map indicating the distribution of each species. More than 850 carefully selected colour photographs complement and illustrate the text. A table on the utilisation of indigenous trees by wildlife, references for further reading and an index to the common and botanical names are included. This valuable guide to indigenous trees should be within reach of every gardener, farmer, naturalist, nurseryman, forester and conservationist - in fact, anyone with a love and appreciation of trees.
Die titel is gebaseer op 'n reeks artikels wat oor 'n periode van twee jaar in die tydskrif Farmer's Weekly verskyn het. Honderde versoeke van lesers dat die inligting in boekvorm beskikbaar gestel moet word, het tot hierdie publikasie gelei. 'n Volledige spesie beskrywing, kenmerke waaraan die boom uitgeken kan word, blom- en dratye, natuurlike verspreiding en habitat. Die ekologiese rol en benutting deur soogdiere, voels en insekte. Ekonomiese waarde en gebruik deur die mens in tuine, op plase en elders as `n bron van voedsel, vesel en medikasie. Eienskappe van die hout en die benutting daarvan deur die mens. Duidelike riglyne oor die ent en kweek van elke boomsoort. 'n Kaart wat die natuurlike verspreiding van elke boomsoort in Suid-Afrika, Swaziland en Lesotho aandui. Meer as 750 volkleur foto's wat met sorg uitgesoek is om die teks te komplimenteer en te illustreer. Die titel bevat ook 'n inleidende afdeling oor die kweek van bome deur saad, steggies en stamsteggies; 'n tabel wat boombenutting deur diere, voels en insekte saamvat; bronverwysings; en 'n indeks van algemene en botaniese name.
