MOON'S TREES 



ULMUS. THE ELMS 



IN landscape planting the Elm is generally useful. It is of massive proportions, long-lived and the 

 branches spread into graceful arches that support a drooping canopy of foliage. The heads are so 

 open that electric wires do not injure them, a desirable feature in street trees. It is extensively 

 used for wide lawns, parks or public grounds over which they cast their cooling shade. 



American Elm. Ulmus Americana. (L) This 

 familiar tree, which arches many New England 

 streets, grows well in other sections. Its rapid 

 growth, and especial grace makes it unsurpassed 

 for urban and suburban planting.

A young American Elm. We have thousands of these 

 trees in sizes from iM to 2K in. in diameter, that will make 

 fine avenue or lawn trees. 



One of the distinguishing features of our nursery is that we 

 raise nearly all the stock we sell and dig it freshly for each 

 order, and do not carry it in storage cellars. Another advan- 

 tage is that our stock for the most part is acclimated and more 

 likely to endure our American climate than imported plants are.
