WEEPING DECIDUOUS TREES 
Much attention is now given to this class of trees, and we place them separately 
for the convenience of our patrons. The superior grace and beauty of the weeping 
varieties render them especially adapted to yard, lawn or cemetery. No collection 
is complete without them; among ornamentals they have no superior.

CUT-LEAVED WEEPING— (Pendula 
Laciniata) — Extremely vigorous and 
hardy. Mr. Scott in his “Suburban 
Home Ground,” says of it: “No en- 
graving can do it justice; like the 
palm tree of the tropics, it must be 
seen in motion, swaying in the light- 
est breeze, its leaves trembling in 
the heated summer air, its white 
bark glistening through the bright 
foliage and sparkling in the sun, to 
enable us to form a true impression 
of its character.”
