Solix - Willow 
Salix babylonica. Babylon Weeping Willow. 
One of the most graceful of all the Willows. 
Makes a round-topped tree, and when it 
attains some size its long, pendent branches 
are most effective. 
S. elegantissima. Thurlow Weeping Willow. 
Of rather upright growth when young but as 
it attains height and age its long, drooping 
silvery branches make it the most effective 
of all the Willows. Rapid grower in either 
moist or other good soil. Fine for specimens 
or screen. Best of the Weeping Willows. 
Prices of above 2 varieties: Each Five 
8 to 10 ft.$2.00 $9.00

S. caprca. Pussy Willow. See page 7 for de¬ 
scription and price. 
Sorbus - Mountain-Ash 
Sorbus oucuparia. European Mountain Ash. 
While this tree naturally does better in 
cooler climates, it will, in our latitude, grow 
20 to 30 feet in height. Almost everyone 
has seen and admired the Mountain Ash 
with its great clusters of scarlet berries that 
appear in summer and early fall. The leaves 
are small, somewhat resembling the locust. 
But when the tree is full of bright red fruit 
it affords a magnificent display. Each 
10 to 12 ft.$2.50 
TIL! A—Continued 
T. vulgaris. European Linden. Similar to the 
American Linden, except the leaves are 
smaller, and the tree is more compact, de¬ 
veloping into a more shapely specimen.

Ulmus - Elm 
Ulmus americana. American Elm. A vigorous 
native tree. It is rapid in growth, with long, 
spreading, and pendent branches forming 
giant crches over roads and sireets; as a 
lawn tree is quick to make a marked effect. 
The wood is tough, the leaves are moderate 
in size, and make a permanent tree for 
shade. The beetle that defoliates the Euro¬ 
pean Elms usually avoids these.

U. foliacea suberosa. Cork-barked Elm Ex¬ 
cept for the interesting cork formation on 
every branch, this tree in growth, foliage, 
and general characteristics is exactly like 
any Americcn Elm. If an odd or special tree 
is des red this may be used. Prices same as 
American Elm. 
Taxodium - Bald Cypress 
Taxodium distichum. The great lumber tree 
of the Far South, but native and perfectly 
at home here. Will grow in dry or wet soil 
and blends well in either deciduous or ever¬ 
green plantings. The light green foliage is 
needle-like and the general shape of the 
tree resembles a spruce. Considered slow 
growing, but very symmetrical and as dur¬ 
able as an oak, in fact, the lumber is called 
the "wood eternal." Each Five

known as Basswood. This native tree is very 
attractive and will grow rapidly when plant¬ 
ed in low ground. The leaves are distinctly 
larger than other varieties. Branches pen¬ 
dulous in habit of growth. Makes an excel¬ 
lent shade tree under favorable conditions.

American Elm 
Ginkgo Tree 
U. americana moline Moline Elm. We graft 
this type because its singular upright char¬ 
acteristics make it invaluable in narrow 
spaces. Its clean growth, large, deep green, 
heavily plaited leaves, added to its sturdi¬ 
ness and solidity, will make it increasingly 
popular when it becomes known. We have a 
fine stock and invite your inspection.

U. pumila. Chinese Elm. A new, rapid-grow¬ 
ing tree that does especially well in difficult 
situations, like city soot and gases, dry 
and poor ground, narrow street plots, etc. 
Leaves smaller than our native Elm, habit 
more pendent and, of course, much more 
rapid. Only drawback possible is sleet- 
damage and Elm-beetle injury. Plant for 
twenty to thirty years' duration. We have 
the North China strain only and it will 
make up as quickly as a willow.
