UL,3IUS. Elm. Ulme, Ger. Orme, Fr. 



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

 planting. But several very desirable kinds fail to receive due recognition, and we therefore invite tin- attention of 

 planters to them as follows: Bcrufdi and Viinutalis are unique miuiature varieties. The Xettle-lcaved has beaut :lul 

 and curious leaves. The Monumental is of dwarf, conical habit, novel and distinct. The Variegated-leaved, Piu-- 

 ple-leaved. Pyramidal, 0.rimien.<c and Wchhiana, are all choice sorts. Dnnvi is a very erect, rapid growing sort, witli 

 smooth bark" and large dark-green leaves ; valuable for avenue plantinj^. Bclyica, superba and Huntiiiudun 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.
