HARRISONS' 



SHADE AND FLOWERING TREES 



Norway Maple — the most popular shade tree 



MAPLES 



NORWAY MAPLES (Acer platanoides). 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 compact, and the head, which is round- 

 topped, begins to branch not far above the 

 ground. The tree is large — towering 50 feet high 

 when fully grown. Splendid trees, most beautiful 

 and desirable. For lining the sides of lanes and 

 roads, for a lawn, to protect the house from sun 

 and weather, for shade, for beauty and satisfac- 

 tion, and for real permanent worth in all land- 

 scape planting there are no other trees in its 

 class. Norway Maples are at home in the moun- 

 tains, but will thrive at any elevation, and in 

 nearly any soil to be found in this country.

 Maple except in spring the leaves are purple and 

 crimson, in summer months dark green, and 

 when fall comes the leaves change to a brown- 

 reddish color. 6 to 8 ft., $1.50 each. 



JAPANESE BLOODLEAF MAPLE (Acer palmatum 



atropurpureum). A very picturesque maple for 

 use in landscape schemes, as an individual speci- 

 men or to add color to your planting. Very 

 conspicuous, medium size bush or tree with blood 

 red foliage. A wonderful addition to any lawn. 

 Best color in sunny locations. 12 to 15 inch, 65c
