Betula - Birch 
Betula alba. European White Birch. Tree of 
moderately quick growth, erect growing, 
with terminal branches slightly drooping. 
Bark almost white. As a specimen tree, and 
especially contrasted with Evergreens, it 
makes 
a valuable tree for 
the lawn. 
Native 
of moist places, but will do well when 
plant- 
ed 
on 
dry ground.

xLrees for Shade and Shelter 
W HEN hot summer sun beats down, you long for the welcome shade of a Maple, 
an Oak, or a broad-spreading Elm. But to have and enjoy such shade and 
shelter, you must plan ahead. The trees must be planted in fall or spring when 
the weather is cool. Then the roots take hold, the tree flourishes, and in a sur¬ 
prisingly few seasons the outspreading branches give the protection you desire. 
We can supply—at very low prices—-large trees that will give immediate effects, 
as well as smaller specimens from 6 to 1 5 feet high, which need a little more time 
to develop after moving to your place. Our trees are well grown, root-pruned, and 
transplanted several times; they are truly Hillenmeyer standard. 
Acer - Maple 
Acer dasycarpum. Silver or Water Maple. Be¬ 
cause of its quick growth and good foliage, 
this tree is in great demand. The leaves 
appear early in spring, are light green on 
the upper side, silvery beneath, and remain 
until late fall. Small flowers open before 
the leaves appear. For planting as tem¬ 
porary trees—that is, alternating between 
the hard-wooded and slower growers, as 
oaks, elms, sugar maples, gums, etc.—the 
Silver Maple is highly recommended.

A. platanoides. Norway Maple. Resembles the 
Sugar Maple in character but with darker 
and larger foliage, round and spreading in 
habit of growth. It is really the European 
Hard Maple and retains this character here. 
For lawn specimens or shade, to plant on 
streets, in parks, cemeteries, avenues, or 
arching over roadways, this tree is highly 
recommended. Sometimes the trunks are 
slightly crooked when young, but they over¬ 
come this unsightliness in a few years when 
Dla 
nted in 
the open.

A. platanoides schwedleri. Schwedler's Maple. 
Similar to the Norway Maple, except in early 
spring the foliage is a bright purple, chang¬ 
ing to bronze and then to dull green. In the 
fall it turns bronze before defoliating.

Weeping Birch 
A. rubrum. Red Maple. If it were not for the 
crooked trunks of this tree, it would prove 
most attractive as a lawn specimen. The 
young shoots are bright red in winter. Flow¬ 
ers red, appearing before the leaves, which 
in fall vie with the oaks, sassafras, gum, 
sumac, or sugar maples for magnificence in 
color.
