An interesting walk of turf, bordered with hedges of Japanese Barberry, page 62, and rows of the Chinese or 

 Umbrella Catalpa described below. The stock used here came from our Nurseries and is indicative of the sort of 

 results that Moons' Plants produce, when rightfully cared for. — Patrick Canahan, Gardener. 



The Catalpas 



THESE are all effective, tropical-looking lawn trees that flower showingly in July. Their leaves are large, 

 glossy and heart-shaped. The long beans of some of the varieties are odd and interesting. They do 

 well in exposed situations and meager soils. Popular in commercial and ornamental plantings. The 

 Catalpas grow rapidly, giving quick results. As an ornamental flowering tree for midsummer they are much 

 admired. 



Indian Bean. Catalpa Bignonioides. (M). 

 A native of the Southern States. Perhaps better 

 suited for planting in that section.

Chinese, or Umbrella Catalpa 



Catalpa Bungei. (D). This is the dwarf, round- 

 headed tree frequently seen and so much admired. 

 It gives the best results when used to produce formal 

 effects. The globular head can be kept more com- 

 pact and symmetrical by frequent trimming.
