*Acer d. var. "Wierii laciniaturn. Wier's Cut-leaved Silver Maple. A. Introduced by us in 1873. It is a 

 variety of the Silver-leaved, and one of the most remarkable and beautiful trees, with cut or dissected 

 foliage. Its growth is rapid, shoots slender and drooping, giving it a habit almost as graceful as the Cut- 

 leaved Birch. The foliage is abundant, silvery underneath, and on the young wood especially deeply and 

 delicately cut. The leaf stalks are long and tinted with red on the upper surface. It ranks among the 

 most interesting and attractive lawn trees, and may be easily adapted to small places by an occasional 

 cutting back, which it will bear to any degree necessary, as well as a willow. (See Cut.) 75c.
