SALISBURY, MARYLAND 



SHADE AND ORNAMENTAL TREES. 



Maple, Silver. The name comes from the 

 color of the leaves. Underneath these are the 

 same shade as new bright silver; on top they 

 are light green. Many of them are carried 

 on their edges, and when wind blows the trees 

 are alive with silver and green flashes. In the 

 fall the leaves fade to pale yellow. Growth is 

 faster than that of any other Maple, and prob- 

 ably faster than that of any other shade tree. 

 Branches are slim and dainty rather than heavy 

 and the form of growth is spreading. Gets very 

 large eventually and does well over nearly all 

 the United States. Makes splendid quick shade.

Maple, Norway. Typical maple leaves, large 

 and bright green, fading to gold in the fall. 

 Trunk and branches are sturdy and strong, 

 lending an effect of ruggedness. Growth is 

 fast. Branches and foliage are thick and com- 

 pact, and the head, which is round-topped, be- 

 gins to branch not far above the ground. The 

 tree is large, towering 50 feet high when fully 

 grown. Splendid trees, most beautiful and de- 

 sirable. For lining the side of lanes and roads, 

 for a lawn, to protect the home from sun and 

 weather, for shade, for beauty and satisfaction, 

 and for real permanent worth in all landscape 

 planting there are no other trees in its class. 

 Norway Maples are at home in the mountains, 

 but will thrive at any elevation, and in nearly 

 any soil to be found in this country.
