A tree that is seldom planted and yet is much valued is the 

 nettle tree. 



In oaks the English oak is good. The white oak, under 

 favorable conditions, is good for from 300 to 500 years. The 

 laurel oak is hardy. 



Of the poplars, the BoUeana grows like the Lombardy poplar. 



The Lombardy is good because of its lapid growth. For 

 park trees the tulip tree is one of our most interesting in the 

 peculiar form of its foliage. 



Of willows the silver leaved and golden barked are distinctive 

 and large masses of foliage come to the ground.
