Deciduous Trees and Shrubs 
The deciduous trees and shrubs listed are varieties that have 
proved reliable for plantings as far north as northern New England 
and most are hardy in southern Canada. 
This list includes many lovely rare and unusual trees and 
shrubs not generally available as well as the best standard vari¬ 
eties. We gladly assist customers in making up lists to ensure a 
continuous succession of flowers throughout the season, or for 
Autumn and Winter color effects, or for bird cover and the like. 
NOTE: The heights shown after the names are approximate heights reached 
under favorable conditions, first under cultivation, and then in their 
native habitat.
