THE RARE FRANKLINIA 



A Very Unusual Flowering Tree 



Each twig develops at its tip a cluster of buds of 

 graduated size, like overgrown greenish pearls. Early 

 in August the largest of these attain the size of mar- 

 bles. Then the guard petal folds back, still retaining 

 its firm spherical form. From this shelter emerges 

 four other petals, satiny, snowy white, elaborately 

 frilled and pleated. The snowy, frilly chalice, three 

 inches in diameter, holds a sumptuous mass of 

 orange-gold stamens and breathes forth a delicate, 

 balmy fragrance. 



Each flower lasts two or three days and than drops 

 cleanly. There is a constant succession of blooms till 

 hard frost. We frequently get the unusual effect of 

 a tree clad in crimson, autumn foliage and abundant- 

 ly starred with white flowers. 



The Franklinia begins blooming when not more 

 than 3 or 4 feet high. Young trees under favorable 

 conditions increase in height a foot or more each 

 season. Specimens 30 feet high are known. It devel- 

 ops naturally with several trunks, but may easily be 

 trained to a single trunk by removing the sprouts 

 which start from the base. 



Franklinia prefers full sun, has proved entirely 

 hardy about New York and hardy in favorable loca- 

 tions about Boston, Mass., and in Ohio.
