ANDORRA NURSERIES > 
M. macrophylla (Great-leaved Magnolia). A superb species, of medium height 
and rounded growth. The leaves are of immense size, often two feet in length. The 
flowers are also very large, sometimes ten to twelve inches in diameter. Its tropical 
appearance—a character all possess to more or less extent—its large leaves, flowers, and 
scarlet fruit make it most effective. $1.00 to $1.50 each. 
M. purpurea (Purple Magnolia). A large, slirub-like species, producing light purple 
blossoms very early in spring. $1.00 to $1.50 each. 
M. Soulangeana (Soulange’s Magnolia). Large, glossy foliage ; hardy, vigorous 
grower ; perhaps the best of what we call Shrub Magnolias ; flowers large, white, purple 
inside. 75 cents, $1.00, to $1.50 each. 
M. stellata (Hall’s Japan Mag¬ 
nolia). A dwarf tree introduced 
by Dr. Hall from Japan. Its 
form is low and shrub-like; its 
flowers are pure white ; the petals 
are long, narrow, and arranged in 
double rows, and the fragrance is 
delicate. It blooms earlier than 
any other Magnolia and is very 
showy. $1.00 each. 
Nyssa multiflora (Tupelo or 
Sour Gum). Of medium size 
and a moderate grower ; leaves 
small, shiny, green, turning to a 
splendid crimson in autumn. 
50 cents to $1.00 each. 
Oxydendron arboreum (Sorrel 
Tree). “Andromeda arborea.” 
A beautiful, small tree, but scarce. 
The leaves give an acid taste, 
magnolia soulangeana (reduced size). whence its name. Small, white 
flowers in slender terminal panicles 
are borne in great profusion, and the seed vessels remain all winter. It is beautiful at 
all seasons, but attains the height of its glory when arrayed in the brilliant coloring of 
its autumn foliage. $1.00 to $3.00 each. 
Paulownia imperialis. Very rapid growth ; large leaves ; blossoms trumpet shaped, in 
large, purple, upright panicles in May; presents a splendid tropical effect if cut down 
every year, when the foliage is unsurpassed for size. 75 cents to $1.00 each.

superbly ornamental, flowering in May. 50 cents each.

blossoms in May, of a bright color. 50 cents each. 
P. vulgaris foliis purpureis (Purple or Blood-leaved Peach). Deep-colored 
foliage in the spring, fading to dull with advance of the season, but the young growth 
preserving its color. Rapid grower, and should be severely cut back every spring. 
50 and 75 cents each. 
Platanus Orientalis (Oriental Plane, Sycamore, or Buttonwood). Similar to 
Platanus Occidentalis, but superior to it in every way and better for street planting. 
One of the finest avenue trees in Europe, and is fast becoming popular in this country, 
not only for its rapid growth and fine head, but also for the fact that it is entirely free 
from worms or insects. 50 cents to $1.00 each. 
Six trees of one variety for the price of five; twelve trees for the price of ten.
