Publisher's Synopsis
Northwestern Pomology is a comprehensive guidebook written by C.W. Gurney in 1894, which provides detailed information on the cultivation and maintenance of trees, fruits, and flowers in the Northwestern states of the United States. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the selection of suitable varieties of fruit trees, soil preparation, planting, pruning, and harvesting techniques. It also includes information on the care and maintenance of flowers, such as roses, and provides advice on how to prevent and treat common diseases and pests. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in horticulture or agriculture, particularly those living in the Northwestern states, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the practices and techniques used in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
