Notes on Burlington Trees 54b 



The paper birch is also common, but prefers the richer soils. It 

 occurs frequently on the Holt estate and at Red Rocks. There is one tree 

 on the southwest part of the College park.

The sweet birch is not uncommon about Burlington, but is less easily- 

 recognized than the other species. There is one small tree near the 

 south end of the College park. 



The yellow birch occurs in the cool ravines of the vicinity. A single 

 tree may be seen near the street in the fence row bordering the north side 

 of Mr. Richardson's grounds, 52 Williams street. Another stands in the 

 southwest part of Dr. Prime's grounds, corner Pearl and Union streets. 

 Veteran trees of this birch are common overhanging the trail and the road- 

 way leading up the sides of Mt. Mansfield.
