DECIDUOUS TREES 
T HE ornamental trees give us some of the nicest pictures of anything in nature. They possess a wide range 
of qualities as in form, size, foliage, flowers and adaptability to withstand many situations. There are an 
immense number of different varieties each suited in their respective way 
to some use in landscape work. Some are valuable as street trees, where 
hardiness, cleanness and vigorous rapid growth are the essentials; others 
are particularly lawn trees, valuable for their showy blossoms or luxuriant foliage; 
still others are effective for some peculiarity in form and color of leaf, or habit 
of growth. 
We grow a very complete line of the best of the hardy trees. All have 
been transplanted one or more times, making an abundance of small roots, thus 
will transplant readily. 
We here give a list of the better varieties with the uses to which each is 
adapted. 
For the benefit of those not entirely familiar with the sizes of trees we 
have put after each name the height to which the tree gets at maturity, thus 40- 
feet after the name means that the tree will grow about 40 feet in height. 
ACER MAPLE 
This is one of our best classes of trees, they make good street as well as 
lawn trees, and are fairly free from insect pests. 
Acer Dasycarpum (Silver Maple), 60 feet. 
A native species, well known and very popular. It’s a very rapid grower, thus valuable 
for immediate effect. It has light green foliage above and silvery beneath. It is a neat, spreading 
tree, and very hardy.
