The Japanese Flowering Cherry Trees of Washington, D.C.
This wonderful book is about the history of the famous Japanese flowering cherry trees in Washington, D.C. It’s co-authored by Roland Jefferson, the first African American botanist at the U.S. National Arboretum (USNA), hired in 1956. Mr. Jefferson began his career studying crabapple trees, but eventually became an international authority on flowering cherries, making many plant collecting trips to Japan.
