NORTHERN STRAIN 



Qmmsn 



Grows 20 Feet in Four Years 



Because of its beauty and extremely rapid growth, Chinese 

 Elm has become a leading shade tree of America. It is planted 

 in every state, and like its native country of Korea, withstands 

 intense cold and extreme heat. It makes excellent shade in 

 five short years, averaging about 5 feet growth annually. It 

 is by far the fastest growing hard-wooded shade tree. It 

 resembles the American Elm except the leaves are smaller, 

 with the gracefulness of a cut-leaf Birch. 



SILVER MAPLE 



<Acer dasycarpum). The name comes from the color of 

 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 leave:; fade to pale 

 yellow. Growth is faster than that of any other Maple. 



AMERICAN ELM

 wide spreading, gracefully curving branches, growing up in a
