Formal "Standard" Trees 



These are most useful for accentuating points in a formal garden, or for 

 lining a drive where the space is too small for large trees. In the case of the 

 Catalpa, the branches or "head" should be pruned severely to encourage a 

 strong, even growth each year, but this is not necessary with the Maple or 

 Elm. Each of these trees is grafted on a stem of another variety, so any shoots 

 coming from the base or on the stem must be cut off close to leave a clean, 

 straight trunk. 



Globe-headed Maple, Acer platanoides glo- Bunge's Catalpa (wrongly called Umbrella 

 bosum. Tree), Catalpa Bungei. 



Globe-headed Elm, Ulmus foliacea umbraculifera. 



BERRY-BEARING TREES AND SHRUBS 



The ornamental or landscape value of a shrub is greatly enhanced if it has 

 colored fruits. Often, although the flower will be quite inconspicuous, the 

 fruits are so highly colored that they are really preferable to flowers, as, gen- 

 erally speaking, they will last much longer. Furthermore, the garden con- 

 taining berry-bearing shrubs will be the center of attraction for all kinds of 

 birds, which add life and interest to any place. Those kinds of which the 

 fruit is particularly preferred by birds as food are marked with an asterisk (*).
