^^OON'S TREES 



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 

 Fern ; 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. 



Pin Oaks — see page 52. Along driveways or for individual 

 )lanting on lawns, Oaks are difficult to excel. All the va- 

 ieties are good, the Pin Oak shown here being of more 

 :ompact growth than some sorts. The Autumn foliage of 

 his variety, in common with some of the others, is also 

 ery brilliant. 



Chestnut Oak. Quercus Prinus. (M). One 

 I of the quickest growing oaks. Distinctiv^e because 

 I the leaves so closely resemble those of a Chestnut.

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.
