14 _ BOYD NURSERY COMPANY 
Plant More Trees for Shade and Beauty 
Nowjiere are more beautiful or desirable trees to be found than the grand old specimens 
of our American forests. If you want to add greatly to the permanent value of your place, 
plant shade trees. Like every other good thing, they take time to grow, but they will repay 
you a thousand times for the time you wait, in grateful shade in summer and glorious aut¬ 
umn colors. We list all the old favorites that you know so well and also many other trees 
that you may not be so familiar with. 
In our nurseries we grow specimen trees for immediate effect. Their roots have been 
pruned as they grow to develop a compact root system. This enables the trees to keep right 
on growing when they are moved. A good planting of trees will fairly “make a place.” 
SCHWEDLER MAPLE (Platanoides Schwedlerl) 
—A handsome lawn tree, developing the rounded, 
dense head of the Norway Maple. Brilliant, pur¬ 
plish red leaves in the spring make a rich contrast 
with the vivid greens of surrounding nature; grad¬ 
ually the highly colored leaves soften to bronze, 
then to waxy green, and late in the fall are deep 
yellow.
