The book used throughout much of this series is the Manual of Oregon Trees and Shrubs by Edward C. Jensen et al. This particular guide can be difficult to find. However, Ed Jensen recently published the 70th Anniversary edition of Trees to Know in Oregon and Washington. He has a similar book, Shrubs to Know in Pacific Northwest Forests, which is also quite good. I will post a few other recommended resources with the video.

Can I get a link to where I can get that book? Or at the very least what the book is called? I have been looking for a good dichotomous key for a very long time and it has been a rough search.

Edward Jensen now has a book "Trees to Know in Oregon" as well as another "Shrubs to Know in Pacific Northwest Forests" both of which have user-friendly keys. Here are a coupe of links: osupress.oregonstate.edu/book/trees-to-know-in-oregon-and-washington www.amazon.com/Trees-Oregon-Washington-Edward-Jensen/dp/0870711202 www.amazon.com/Plants-Pacific-Northwest-Coast-Pojar/dp/1772130087

If you plant this in Russia, it grows like a shrub. Funny how plants adapt to different environments. But their is a conifer in Russia that Russians call "cedar pine", and that is actually a very close relative to the endangered American white bark pine.

Thank you for your comments, Dimitri. Interesting both that Thuja plicata grows like a shrub and that you have a conifer closely related to whitebark pine. What is the scientific name or Russian name of cedar pine?

@@pualanid7905 That Russian pine's full scientific name is pinus cembra sibirica. It is sometimes considered a subspecies of the pinus cembra, which grows in the Alps and the Carpathians. The full Russian name for it is "sosna kedrovaya sibirskaya", literally "Siberian cedar pine". In the States it could probably grow somewhere like Alaska, Minnesota, North Dakota or high in the Rockies.

Спасибо! I spent a few years in Central Asia and travelled into Russia. I wish that I had spent more time familiarizing myself with the names of the fascinating flora and fauna of the areas I visited. Certain species were very similar to those in here in Oregon.
