Canon de Belloch. Catalogue of Urban Trees

Canon de Belloch is a guide for the selection of the tree species best suited to planting in cities, based on key criteria such as adaptability, ease of maintenance and socio-environmental functionality in aggressive urban environments. Using a practical but scientifically grounded approach, it is an indispensable tool for those making decisions about trees in our cities.

A reference work for green space managers, urban planners, landscape designers and even plant nursery professionals, Canon de Belloch outlines solutions for building more sustainable and liveable cities, combining science, experience and vision. This second edition builds on the celebrated success of the first edition, expanding and developing the information on recommended species, for use not only in avenue and street alignment, but also in parks and gardens.
