THE BLOSSOM CIRCLE OF THE YEAR 



THE HISTORIC CORNWALLIS OAK 

 At Guilford, N. C, says tradition, on March 15, 1751, Lord Cornwallis, in command of the 

 British troops, tied his horse to an Oak sapling. The horse ate the main leader and the tree 

 developed this magnificent spreading head. Who would not treasure such an heirloom in 



his or her garden ?
