Texas Umbrella 
the appearance of a large umbrella. It enjoys the distinction of giving the 
best dense shade possible to obtain. The foliage is of a bright dark green and 
produces flowers of a lilac color which are very fragrant. It also produces 
berries or seeds which resemble very much that of a bead and are often used 
for stringing as beads. 
This variety is particularly adapted to the warmer climates in California and 
while it is not as highly recommended for street planting as some other shade 
trees we certainly do not hesitate to recommend it for all home yards, avenues 
and any place where dense shade is desired. Fach 10 100
