65 WOODY PLANTS COMMON TO THE KANTO AREA

 


Link: 69 Woody Plants of the Kanto Area

For scouts and scouters needing English language help with plant identification, I hope this will be of some help. 

This originally was a year long project to earn a PHD in the College of Commissioner Science. I selected it because there was very little information in English about Japanese plants, and there are many requirements for scouts to complete in this area. Also, considering many leaders are foreigners, they may not be familiar with local flora.

The original copy was made on a word processor and the pages could be printed out on A4 [paper, folded in half, and stapled into a book along the open edges.

As part of a woodbadge project, it is now in a form more accessible to scouts and leaders. 

Many thanks to my son Jon, for creating this link, an Eagle scout giving back to scouting.
