ORIENTAL PLANE 
[PLATAN US ORIENTALIS.] 
From time immemorial the Oriental Plane has been famous for 
the large size to which it attains, and its majestic appearance. 
For generations it has been extensively used as a shade tree 
throughout West Asia and South Europe, and to-day is still one 
of the favorite street trees of those countries, and in this country 
is coming to be recognized as one of the best street trees, as it is 
free from attacks of fungus and will stand severe pruning when 
required. Another excellent quality of the Oriental Plane is that 
it transplants easily, even to large sized trees. They grow best in 
a deep rich moist soil but will do well under the most adverse 
conditions.
