tiful trees  with  oddly  cut  foliage.

sa 
Nyssa  sylvatica ;  syn.,  N.  multiflora.  Sour  Gum. 
( M )  A  native  tree  that  is  very  hardy  and  not 
particular  about  the  soil  it  has  to  grow  in,  though 
it  is  especially  fond  of  damp,  swampy  places. 
The  small,  dark,  glossy  green  leaves  are  bright 
and  attractive.  They  are  among  the  first  to 
change  their  color  in  the  fall  and  are  most  gor- 
geous in  their  brilliant  scarlet  coloring,  which  is 
as  bright  as  any  tree  we  know  of.  They  are 
rather  hard  to  transplant  and  should  be  cut  back 
when  moving.

growing  branchless  trunks  that  produce  a  unique 
and  tropical  effect.
