Of course. Add, change, or delete Tree Species table entries as you wish.

That's minor, just an example...another more pertinent might be Attila's very detailed birch pruning directions (similar to what is in Mr. Harrington's list but more explicit - right now, I need explicit!).

Type away. Add as much text as you'd like!

I don't blame Mr. Harrington for not including it in his Fagus entry - he made mention his genus/species database is written from a UK/European audience' viewpoint, and American beech certainly is more difficult of the beeches (not the 1st I'd recommend for bonsai), but I am intrigued with doing North American natives, and I'll probably do one eventually. I'd like to add any specific info on them when I do. American hackberry in the Celtis entry, American Linden in the Tilia text, etc.

That's why it is being used as a starting place, not the end all and be all.
