Acer. The Maples 



THIS most popular group of shade trees is hardy, vigorous, easily transplanted, regular in outline 

 and beautiful in leaf. In Autumnal coloring we find the Maples ranking first among the large 

 assortment of shade trees. As a family, they vary greatly in their adaptibility; the following des- 

 criptions of each sort tells briefly the purposes for which each is best suited. 



In addition to the standard varieties, we also offer several new kinds that will make interesting speci- 

 mens of value on most any lawn. Generally speaking, these trees grow easily and require very little care 

 and attention. 



European Cork Maple 



European Cork Maple. Acer Campestris. 

 (M). A fine, low, bushy tree to use for screening 

 purposes. Grows slowly into a small, handsome 

 tree with thick rounded head. The leaves are 

 rather small and the bark is corky. Valuable for 

 planting on high, dry ground. It withstands shear- 

 ing and can be planted for hedges.

Norway Maple. Acer Platanoides. (M). A 

 handsome tree, forming a wide, rounded head of 

 spreading branches, and having broad, deep green 

 leaves. Strong, compact and vigorous. It is one 

 of the best ornamental trees, and is popular in all 

 lawn, park, cemetery and street plantings. For 

 the latter purpose it has been said by many writers 

 of the best authority to be one of the few trees that 

 will grow satisfactorily under city conditions.
