The Florists' Review 



Mat 25, 1922 



or on sandy lands near the eoast the red 

 oak and the red or scarlet maple are 

 suitable as far south as ('liarleston, 

 S. C, while the sweet gum and the live 

 oak are e(|uall.v good from Norfolk 

 southward and along the Oulf of Mex- 

 ico. The red oak. sweet gum, red maple 

 and eastern live oak are all grown suc- 

 cessfully along the I'acific ocean, while 

 the California live oak can be used from 

 San Francisco southward. The trees 

 that endure the most alkali appear to be 

 the bladdernut tree, London plane, pep- 

 permint gum and its variety Eucalyptus 

 amygdalina angustifolia, and the wash- 

 ingtonia and other hardy fan palms. 

 The red oak and red maple are worth 

 testing for alkali conditions. 



In the lieart of a city, where the great- 

 est difficulty is experienced in getting 

 trees to grow, the ailanthus will prob- 

 ably thrive when nearly all other kinds 

 fail. The sycamore and the London 

 plane are also good. Tiie Carolina ])op- 

 lar will frequently grow in such places, 

 and its use may sometimes be war- 

 ranted.
