Nyssa 
Nyssa  sylvatica;  syn.,  N.  multiflora.  Sour  Gum. 
(M)  a  native  tree  that  is  very  hardy  and  not 
particular  about  the  soil  that  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 
gorgeous  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.

and  tropical  effect.  Each  doz
