XJLMUS. Elm. Ul>ie, Ger. Orme, Er. 



Many of the Elms are so well kifown that it is unnecessary to refer to their beauty and value for ornamental 

 plantin<^ But several very desirable kinds fail to receive due recognition, and Ave therefore invite the attention of 

 planters to them as follows : Berardi and Viminali.-i are unique miniature varieties. The Nettle-leaved has beautiful 

 and curious leaves. The Monumental is of dwarf, conical h-abit, novel and distinct. The ^ ariegated-leaved, Pur- 

 ple-leaved, Pyramidal, Oxoniense and Wehhiana, are all choice sorts. Doiwl is a very erect, rapid grownig sort, with 

 smooth bark and large dark-green leaves ; valuable for avenue planting. Belgicn, superha and Huntingdon are also 

 suited to the same purpose. We, of course, grow the American, than which there is no finer tree, on an extensive 

 scale, for street and park planting.
