Deciduous Trees 
ORNAMENTAL AND 
SHADE TREES 
I N addition to the trees which are valued for their shade, there are flowering trees which, at different times 
during the spring and summer, shower the lawn with their bloom. Do not forget that while shade trees 
add materially to the property value and landscape charm of your home, the initial cost is very small 
as compared with the enjoyment that you receive. The average shade tree is a long investment and returns 
your money manifold throughout the years of its usefulness.

Increases Property Value 
Beautifying your home grounds is an investment which pays im¬ 
mediate dividends. The moment you set an ornamental or fruit tree, 
a shrub, plant or vine, your property becomes more valuable and 
desirable. Real estate dealers have estimated that the addition of a 
few trees and shrubs in a new subdivision often increases the property 
value 20%. Most things depreciate from the minute of purchase. 
Planting is one of the feu' investments that do not depreciate but ever 
bring increased returns in actual value and satisfaction. 
Acer ginnala. Amur Maple. Brilliant autumn coloring, very 
effective with shrub and tree plantings.
