The double flowering varieties are distinguished for their showy and beautiful bloom. At the blossoming season 

 every branchlet is covered with a mass of beautifully formed, highly colored flowers, rendering the trees most 

 interesting objects and attracting notice from a distance. The double red, double rose, and double white varieties 

 planted in a group, produce a charming effect. We cannot too highly recommend these superb flowering trees.
