monotony of lower 
round-topped trees. Will

blank wall spaces of 
high public buildings.

native pyramidal tree 
of rapid growth, with 
large glossy leaves;

seasons. 
Lomhardy. The selective 
appreciation of trained 
landscape builders is 
getting this fine type 
into much more general 
use. Old trees which 
were thoughtfully plac¬ 
ed, are outstanding 
landmarks today; their 
great height, dense 
slenderness, and sombre 
silhouette against the 
skyline, a picturesque 
effect. 
Ginkgo Tree (Salisburia). 
Lombardy Poplar.
