it attains height and age its long, drooping 
silvery branches make it the most effective 
of all the Willows. Rapid grower in either

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

Tilia americana. American Linden. Sometimes 
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.

smaller, and the tree is more compact, de¬ 
veloping into a more shapely specimen.

Ulmus - Elm 
ui mus americana. American Elm. A vigorous 
native tree. It is rapid in growth, with long, 
spreading, and pendent branches forming 
giant arches over roads and streets; 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.

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.
