Excerpt from Veitch's Manual of the Coniferae: Containing a General Review of the Order; A Synopsis of the Species Cultivated in Great Britain; Their Botanical History, Economic Properties, Place and Use in Agriculture, Etc, Etc In this revised edition of Veitch's Manual of Coniferae I have endeavoured to collect from the best available sources every item of information that should prove useful and interesting to amateurs of this remarkable family of trees and shrubs and also to foresters and horticulturists. The descriptions of the species have been drawn up from fresh materials and from an inspection of the subjects themselves wherever practicable, and trees of the same species growing in different and distant parts of Great Britain have been visited with this object. In the comparatively few instances in which this has not been done, the descriptions are those of the authorities quoted. With the view of conveying an idea as accurate as can be obtained of the condition and aspect of the most important coniferous trees as seen in their native forests, the accounts of them given by those who have explored the forests are transcribed wholly or in part in preference to any studied paraphrasing of their statements. Especial attention has been given to the geographical distribution of the species and the climatic conditions under which they grow in their native homes, on the conviction that correct information on these points affords material aid to the successful cultivation of them in Great Britain.
