This Pergola was bare and angular when our suggestions were asked, with the result that in a few months this 

 foliage effect has been produced. Imagine its even greater attractiveness when the vines grow over it. 



Populus. The Poplars 



THESE trees grow rapidly, are quickly effective and inexpensive. They thrive in almost any soil 

 and withstand well the smoke of cities. Where quick shade or temporary effects are desired Poplars 

 are a good tree to use. The narrow-growing, upright-branched sorts are favorites in architectural 

 arrangements and for tall screens where there is little ground space allotted. 



Populus alba. var. Bolleana. 

 Boll's Poplar. (M). In habit resem- 

 bles the Lombardy Poplar, but leaves 

 are silvery white beneath. Useful for 

 the same purposes.

A Lombardy Poplar grow- 

 ing in our nursery rows.

Lombardy Poplar. Populus Ni- 

 gra, vAR. Fasti giata; syn. P. Italica 

 Nigra. (L). A tall, columnar form

 from the ground and is much used 

 where a tall hedge is wanted as a 

 screen. Especially valued for formal 

 effects.
