Trees & Shrubs of the Pacific Northwest Released

Trees & Shrubs of the Pacific Northwest

It’s been a long journey but my latest book, Trees & Shrubs of the Pacific Northwest, should be in your favorite bookstore this week. You can also order autographed copies directly from me. Ellen Kuhlmann wrote the text and I photographed all but a few of the 568 species of mostly native trees and shrubs in the book.

I began thinking about the tree book back in 2009 and began photographing a few species that year and in 2010.

You Can’t Can Garden Here!

Posted on February, 2010 by Mark Turner
Winter garden in Spokane

I’ve been working since 2007 on the photography for a book about gardening between the Cascades and the Rockies. Pat Munts, a friend, gardener, and writer from Spokane, is spearheading the project and writing the text. We’ve shopped the book proposal to several publishers, but so far none have made a commitment. That’s frustrating, but we’re not giving up. We firmly believe that there are thousands of gardeners in the geographically diverse dry interior of the northwest who are starved for local information. Continue reading →
