TILIA — Continued 



T. Platyphyllos. (M). Develops into a beauti- 

 ful tree having a pyramidal head. The leaves are 

 pubescent on the under surface of the veins. The 

 bark of the tree, particularly when young, is light 

 gray dotted with dark markings. Being rather regu- 

 lar in outline makes it well suited for avenue planting, 

 and when used for this purpose it produces a very 

 uniform and attractive appearance.

T. Vulgaris; syn. Europea. (M). A popular 

 tree abroad, especially in Germany, where its pres- 

 ence along a famous thoroughfare in Berlin has 

 caused the street to be named "Unter den Linden." 

 In this country it is just as deserving of popularity 

 for it is a rapid-growing tree of symmetrical habit. 

 The heart-shaped leaves are dark green and glossy, 

 both above' and beneath. Of the different varieties 

 of European Lindens, we believe this to be the best. 

 It assumes symmetrical proportions when quite 

 young, grows quickly and seems adapted for most 

 any purpose where a good shade tree is needed.

Ulmus. The Elms 



THIS family of shade trees is perhaps most generally known by our native variety, the American Elm, 

 although there are European sorts as well as those of garden origin, all of which are useful in their 

 different places. The Elm Leaf beetle, which is somewhat destructive in certain sections of the coun- 

 try, can be kept in control by spraying. The cost of spraying is comparatively slight and can be handled 

 economically and very successfully. Cities and towns have been made famous for their wonderful old Elms 

 which overarch their streets. People who plant now and care for their trees will in after years enjoy the 

 beauty of these majestic old favorites. 



American Elm. Ulmus Americana. (L). This Elm, our most characteristic tree which arches many 

 New England streets, also grows well in other sections. It is of massive proportions, long-lived and 

 the branches spread into graceful arches that support a drooping canopy of foliage. The shade is not so 

 dense as to interfere with a good sod underneath. The heads are so open that electric wires do not 

 injure them, a desirable feature in street trees. Its rapid growth and especial grace make it unsurpassed 

 for urban and suburban planting.
