The European species, although 

 tliey retain their green leaves until 

 alter the scarlet capsules open, are 

 less ornamental plants here than some 

 of the Asiatic species. The best known 

 of the European species, E. europaeus, 

 the English Spindle-tree, is a narrow 

 tree which sometimes grows in this 

 country to the height of twenty feet 

 and is handsome in the autumn when 

 the dark green leaves make a good 

 background for the scarlet fruit. There 

 is a variety with white capsules of no 

 great ornamental value. On a form 

 of this tree raised here from seeds sent 

 from Hungary the leaves at this sea- 

 son become dark purple on the upper 

 surface but remain green on the lower 

 surface. The variety ovata which 

 came to the Arboretum from a German 

 nursery has broader leaves and larger 

 fruit than the common form and 

 promises to be a good ornamental 

 plant here. Evonymus lalifoUus is 

 another European species rather than 

 a tree. The leaves are broader and the 

 fruit is larger than that of the Spindle- 

 tree. The fruit, unfortunately, is not 

 produced as abundantly as that of 

 most of the other species. E. atropu- 

 pureun. the Burning Bush of the 

 United States, is a small tree which 

 grows naturally from western New 

 York to Montana and to Florida and
