BIRCH 
CUT-LEAVED WEEPING (Pendula laciniata) — 
This tree is indeed a picture of delicacy and 
grace. It presents a combination of attractive 
characteristics of which no other variety can 
boast. Mr. Scott in his “Suburban and Home 
Grounds,” says of it: “No engraving can do it 
justice; like the }>alm tree of the tropics, if 
must be seen in motion, swaying in the lightest 
breeze, its leaves trembling in the heated air, 
its white bark glistening through the bright fol¬ 
iage and sparkling in the sun, to enable us to 
form a true impression of its character.” Makes 
a large tree. Of but little beauty when deliver¬ 
ed from the nursery, but it develops int<^' a 
thing of beauty.
