CHESTNUT HILL , PHILAD’A, PA. 
Koelreuteria paniculata. A charming small tree, a native of China, with glossy, 
divided foliage and large terminal panicles of showy golden-yellow flowers in July, 
followed by curious, bladdery seed-vessels. Its pleasingly-colored foliage and neat habit 
of growth, with its showy flowers, render it a very desirable lawn tree. Any well- 
grown Koelreuteria is a striking object when in full flower, and these trees have an 
especial interest from the fact that they are covered with showy flowers after the great 
majority of trees and shrubs are past their bloom. 50 cents to $1.00 each.

medium-sized trees; leaves resemble somewhat 
those of the Maple, but are star-shaped and of a

ful in nil stages of growth, it is particularly 
handsome and striking in the autumn.
