Lombardv Poplars from our Nurseries on an estate near Philadelphia. Not Low-branched Lombardy Poplar 



only are these trees decorative for lawn purposes, but they are valuable for which is representative of the stock 

 screening objectionable views. We have a splendid stock of low-branched listed below, 

 trees this year. 



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 arrange- 

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



Populus alba. var. BoUeana. Boll's Poplar. 

 (M). In habit resembles the Lombardy Poplar, but 

 leaves are silvery white beneath. Useful for the 

 same purposes.

Lombardy Poplar 



Populus Nigra, var. Fastigiata; syn. P. Ital- 

 ICA Nigra. (L). A tall, columnar form that is in 

 contrast to the more rounded outline of other trees. 

 For producing this contrast it is much valued in 

 collections of trees on large lawns or public grounds. 

 In smaller areas it also accentuates certain vistas or 

 makes a more pronounced effect when used individ- 

 ually in certain locations where a tree of this type 

 fills a much wanted need. Being low-branched and 

 of quick growth make it especially well suited for 

 screen planting. It is surprising how soon a plant- 

 ing of these trees will shut out those unsightly 

 objects which so often make certain views rather 

 undesirable. When planting for this purpose set 

 the trees from four to six feet apart. When a 

 complete screen is desired we suggest planting four 

 feet apart. When you desire to keep them from 

 growing too high, we suggest cutting off a little of 

 the top every few years.
