CAROLINA POPLAR. One of the most 
rapid growing trees, with large, handsome, 
glossy, deep green leaves. Succeeds every¬ 
where; especially adapted to cities where it 
makes unusually fast growth and resists 
smoke and gas. Pyramidal in form, mak¬ 
ing a spreading head and dense shade when 
properly trimmed. It is unexcelled for 
quick growth and effect; makes a splendid 
wind break or screen. It is used in larger 
numbers for street planting than any other 
tree. 
VOLGA POPLAR. A new hardy poplar 
from Russia, the tree is an upright grow¬ 
er, similar to the Lombardy Poplar. The 
branches are much stronger, however, and 
the leaves are larger, of better form and 
deeper green. Perfectly hardy, of strong, 
vigorous growth. 
NORWAY POPLAR. Sudden Saw Log. 
A very distinct tree in habit of growing 
and making a straight, upright, somewhat 
pyramidal head. The foliage is large, 
thickly borne, bright and glossy. It grows 
rapidly in almost every soil and yet it 
possesses strength and durability which 
most poplars lack. For city planting it is 
superior to most of the other poplars, as it 
withstands the effect of smoke and dust 
much better.
