Abstract/Contents:Discusses the use of trees on golf courses, focusing on "getting started"; "tree design concepts"; "[knowing] your site"; "finding the right tree"; "purchasing and planting trees"; and "[avoiding] common planting mistakes." Suggests that "a thorough knowledge of trees is a must for a tree planting program. That includes a tree's growth characteristics, site adaptability, pest tolerance, and other positive and negative qualities." Concludes that "matching the right tree to the right site, adhering to naturalistic design principles, and envisioning the impacts of the mature planting are key to a successful tree planting and management program."
