Pin Oak. Quercus Palustris. (M). It is the 

 most popular of all Oaks; unsurpassed as lawn 

 specimens, admired for avenues. As the tree grows 

 the branches droop, giving it a peculiarly beautiful 

 and characteristic outline. The leaves are deep 

 green, glossy and finely divided, flaming to orange 

 and scarlet in the Fall. This variety transplants 

 more readily than some kinds, and with proper 

 care will grow almost as quickly as a Maple.

Willow Leaved Oak. Quercus Phellos. (L). 

 Takes its name from its long, narrow leaves which 

 resemble those of the Willow. Grows slowly and 

 does best in moist soil. The branches grow rather 

 closely, making a compact round-headed tree of 

 great beauty.

Chestnut Oak. Quercus Prinus. (M). One 

 of the quickest growing oaks, forming a broad, 

 open tree. Distinctive because the leaves so closely 

 resemble those of a Chestnut. It is worthy of more 

 general use for lawn and park planting because of 

 its imposing and stately dignity.

 leaves that are dark green and smaller than those 

 of our native species. Well adapted for lawn and 

 public grounds.

 narrow, columnar tree of compact habit. Splendid 

 for formal planting. The leaves remain green until 

 long after frost and adhere persistently to the 

 branches almost all Winter.

This catalogue leaves nothing to the purchaser's 

 imagination about the size of the stock we 

 propose furnishing at the prices given. Some 

 nursery catalogues do. 



Red Oak. Quercus Rubra. (M). A large 

 native tree, with deeply cut, bright green leaves. 

 It is a good grower and not particular about the 

 soil. In Autumn the foliage turns a rich purplish 

 crimson that is scarcely surpassed in brilliancy by 

 any other tree. Makes a beautiful lawn tree, also 

 suited for avenue planting and some authorities 

 claim it will grow well under city conditions. Land- 

 scape authorities are using this Oak more freely 

 each season, in their plantings, realizing that it is 

 one of the best.

Salisburia . Ginkgo 



Ginkgo, or Maidenhair Tree. Salisburia 

 Adiantifolia. (M). This tree is remarkable as a 

 deciduous member of the Pine family, with odd- 

 shaped leaves that resemble those of the Maidenhair 

 F>rn; but its value lies in the fact that it is immune 

 from the ordinary attacks of insects and withstands 

 so well the unnatural conditions of our cities. It is 

 highly ornamental on lawns or public grounds.

Salisburia, or Ginkgo. The leaves indicate why this 

 tree is commonly called the maidenhair. For planting 

 in populous portions of our cities and under similar con- 

 ditions adverse to most tree life this variety grows well
