A Key to Common Trees ID Guide

This Key to Common Trees ID Guide by the Field Studies Council features 34 of the commonest broadleaved and conifer trees found in Great Britain and Ireland.

Use the guide’s straightforward flow chart for speedy tree identification. Want to tell apart beech and hornbeam? Maple and sycamore? Ash and rowan? Simple yes/no questions will quickly guide you to the colour illustrations for each tree.

Text on the reverse side covers the features of each tree, including leaf shape, flowers, bark, fruits and seeds, habitat, origin and commercial use. 

You do not need to be an expert to use our tree guide. Even if you are a beginner you should be able to put a name to the common trees found in your area.  The guide shows you how trees of different types can be useful to us. 

This field guide measure 24.5cmx17.5cm and is extremely lightweight so is the perfect tree guide for popping in your bag when heading outside.
