ORNAMENTAL TREES. 



SELECT DECIDUOUS ORNAMENTAL TREES. 



The following comprise a Select Assortment of the most beautiful and estimable species, which 

 our loug experience has enabled us to arrange with precision. The inferior species we have 

 omitted. 



We have divided them into four classes. The first class comprises those of majestic growth, 

 which attain great stature and ample development; the second class, those which attain a medium 

 size; the third class, those of low stature ; and the fourth class such as are comparatively of slow 

 growth, requiring a long period before they attain the size of a small tree, and which, therefore, 

 it would be more appropriate, in ornamenting grounds, to rank among large Shrubs. 



The prices stated are for trees of fair size; but where extra large-sized trees are desired for 

 Streets, Avenues, <fcc, in order to impart immediate ornament, such can be supplied at proportion- 

 ate rates, varying in height from ten to twenty feet, of many of the most estimable species.
