var.  Reitenbachi.  Reitenbach's  Norway 
Maple.  Beautiful  and  striking  because  of  its 
rich,  changing  foliage,  which  is  soft  green  in 
spring,  decidedly  purple  in  midsummer,  pur- 
plish scarlet  in  autumn.  Vigorous,  pyramidal; 
valuable  for  contrasts.    5  to  7  ft.,  $1.

leaves  and  shoots  contrast  brightly  with  the  deli- 
cate greens  of  spring.  At  maturity  they  are

and  shades.  The  spring  effect  is  as  fine  as  that

valuable.    10  to  12  ft.,  $1.50.

tumnal foliage.    4  to  6  ft.,  75  cts. 
A.  saccharinum.  SUGAR,  or  Rock  Maple. 
Noblest  and  most  enduring  of  all  the  Maples, 
this  is  also  one  of  the  finest  and  most  generally 
useful  of  all  our  shade  trees.  It  roots  deeply, 
allowing  the  grass  to  grow  close  about  its  trunk, 
and  grows  with  age  into  a  straight,  symmetrical 
tree  of  grand  proportions.  The  famous  Rock 
Maple  avenues  along  the  Hudson  are  nearly  a 
century  old,  yet  still  in  their  splendid  prime.

A.  Tataricum  Ginnala.  Siberian  Maple. 
Leaves  smaller  and  more  finely  cut;  of  similar 
habit.  The  leaves  turn  a  beautiful  red  early  in 
autumn.  It  is  very  useful  for  foliage  effects  in 
climates  too  cold  for  the  Japan  Maples,  and  also 
fine  for  mingling  with  them  in  beds  or  groups. 
A  comparatively  new  variety  that  is  being  widely 
planted.    4  to  6  ft.,  75  cts. 
A.  Virginiana.  Similar  in  leaf  and  appearance  to 
the  Silver  Maple,  but  of  more  dwarf  habit.

J|^°Of  the  standard  sorts  of  Deciduous  Trees  we 
annually  grow  large  blocks,  and  can  always  sup- 
ply fine  specimens  at  reasonable  rates.  We  grade, 
dig  and  pack  these  with  great  care  and  the  skill  of 
long  experience.  Our  extra-sized  specimens  have 
been  pruned  and  transplanted  to  avoid  all  danger 
of  loss  in  removal.
