White Ash 
Fraxinus americana 
A tall, straight, fast-growing tree which will 
produce quick shade. Its long, compound green 
leaves turn a brilliant yellow in fall. Another 
advantageous characteristic of the Ash is that it 
will grow in extremely wet locations but will also 
grow in dry places. 60 ft.

European Planetree • Sycamore 
Plat anus orientalis 
Most widely used tree for street and orna¬ 
mental planting in cities and other locations 
where smoke and gas are a factor to be con¬ 
sidered. It grows rapidly and is healthy and 
hardy, with ability to succeed under adverse 
conditions. The handsome leaves form a dense 
foliage useful where high visibility is desired in 
outlining streets, parks, public play areas, and 
grounds around public buildings. 50 ft.

Silver Poplar 
Populus bolleana 
The Bolleana Poplar is tall and columnar in 
form with smooth gray-green bark and leaves a 
shining green above and silvery beneath. Its 
prominent appearance, extremely rapid growth, 
and easy culture suggest its use extensively for 
lightening somber aspects of the landscape, for 
accents, and for creating quick screens. 50 ft.

clear “evergreen appearing” leaves forming

Planetree 
Weeping Willow 
Salix 
Tall, upright, massive in form, with its long, 
slender branches growing straight downward. 
Weeping Willow is always attractive. It is 
especially so in summer when the pendulous 
branches sway gently in the breeze, and the long, 
slender, lustrous green leaves show a bright 
silver reflex. Willows grow rapidly, will thrive 
in wet places, and like to be near water, but do 
not mind being planted elsewhere, as they grow 
heartily in almost any location. 
We list the three main varieties: 
Lombardy Poplar 
Populus nigra italica 
Wherever deep green, picturesque, spire-like 
shafts are seen shooting into the sky, it must be 
Lombardy Poplar. There is no other tree with 
its combination of glossy deep green foliage, 
dense growth, and spire-like form. These at¬ 
tributes of the Lombardy Poplar, coupled with 
its extreme longevity, bring to us a source of 
enjoyment from trees planted scores of years 
ago. 70 ft.
