ORNAMENTAL EVERGREEN TREES 
ACACIA 
The acacias arc all natives of Australia and Tasmania. 
The wood is valuable, they are all of rapid growth and pro¬ 
duce their various shades of yellow flowers in great profusion. 
For quick growth and shade-affording purposes, we know of 
no better tree. We specialize the Melanoxylon (Black Acacia), 
Floribunda (abundance of flowers) and the Baileyana. 
BAILEYANA. A small, handsome tree with glaucous 
foliage and covered with bright yellow flowers in the Spring. 
So profuse are the flowers they almost drown the foliage; 
very popular as a cut flower. This tree is an ornament to 
any garden. One of the finest of the Acacia trees. In 
gallon cans 2 to 3 ft., 50 cts. to 75 cts.; 3 to 4 ft., SI to 
$1.25. In 5 gallon cans, 4 to G ft., $2 to $2.50 each. 
ACACIA MELANOXYLON (BLACK ACACIA)
