European White Birch. 
ASH, American. Fraxinus americana —A stately 
native tree with straight, clean growth, foliage light 
green. Dependable and very satisfactory as it grows 
rapidly, being a forest tree valuable for timber. 
6 to 8 feet.$1.50 8 to 10 feet.$2.50 
BIRCH, European White. Betula alba —Tree of 
moderately quick growth, bark almost white, erect 
growing with terminal branches slightly drooping. 
Native of moist places but will do well when planted 
on dry ground. As a specimen tree and especially 
contrasted with evergreens it makes a valuable tree 
for the lawn. 
European White Birch, 4 to 6 feet.$2.50 
European White Birch, 8 to 10 feet. 3.50 
BIRCH, Weeping, White. B. Pendula gracilis— 
This tree is one of the most conspicuous trees grown. 
With its white bark, deeply cut leaves and long, pen¬ 
dant branches it presents a picturesque effect planted 
either as a specimen or otherwise. It should be 
pruned severely when planted and once established 
will prove of great merit.

BIRCH, River. B. nigra —This is a native tree 
with darker bark but in foliage and general char¬ 
acteristics resembles the other birches. 
6 to 8 feet.,.$1.50 
CATALPA, Umbrella. C. bungei —This tree has 
become popular because of its traight stems and 
symmetrical roundish heads which resemble an um¬ 
brella. The tops are dwarf and while they do not 
grow very rapidly their wide leaves give them the 
appearance of much larger trees. The foliage is very 
pleasing and the effect obtained when planted in 
pairs along walks, drives or entrances is greatly 
admired. 
Catalpa Bungei, 5 to 8 feet.$1.50 
DOGWOOD. White. Cornus florida —A native 
tree well known to everyone. There is hardly a 
woody plant that grows that is quite as useful as our 
native Dogwood. Its blossoms are conspicuous, 
coming early in the spring, the foliage is attractive 
all summer and in the fall colors beautifully with red 
berries that hang on most of the winter. It is beau¬ 
tiful at all seasons of the year. It can be used as a 
specimen or in groups, as a background for shrub 
borders; when planted in contrast with bright flow¬ 
ering plants like Redhud it is especially showy.

DOGWOOD. Pink. C. florida rubra —This is a 
colored form of the above native sort, resembling it 
very closely in habit of growth, period of bloom and 
general behavior. Conspicuous in the early spring 
with bright deep rose blossoms. 
18 to 24 inches.$1.00 3 to 4 feet.$2.00 
2 to 3 feet. 1.50 4 to 5 feet. 2.50 
ELM. American. Ulumus americana —A tree of 
unusual vigor, a native too well known to describe. 
It is rapid of growth, with its long, spreading and 
pendant branches forming giant arches over roads 
and streets or as a lawn tree is quick to make a 
marked effect. The wood is tough, the leaves are 
moderate in size and makes a permanent tree for 
shade. The beetle that defoliates the European Elms 
usually avoids these.

HORSE CHESTNUT, European. Aesculus hip- 
pocastanum —A tree of slow growth, yet very attrac¬ 
tive in its roundish form with large leaves that are 
conspicuous in early summer. It is especially valued 
for the long panicles of flowers, white and tinged with 
red. 
Horse Chestnut, 6 to 8 feet.$2.50 
Horse Chestnut, Red, 8 to 10 feet. 5.00 
GUM, Sweet. Liquidambar sytaciflua —Another na¬ 
tive tree not appreciated. It is not of rapid growth 
nor especially easy to transplant, but the glossy foli¬ 
age in summer, the brilliant color in the fall and the 
unusual appearance in the winter of the young 
branches with their corky bark are considerations 
that make it especially valuable.
