LEAVES OF THE CRISP-LEAVED MAPLE. 
(Natural Size.) 
var. crispurn. Crisped-leaved Silver Maple. A beautiful variety, 
raised in our nurseries from seed. Its foliage is deeply cut and crimped, and in 
appearance is quite different from anything in this class. The tree is of medium, 
rather compact growth. $1.00. 
var. lieterophyllum laciniatum. Cut-leaved Silver Maple. 
A distinct variety, raised in our nurseries from the seed of the Silver-leaved. Tt is a 
luxuriant, erect grower of fine appearance, and has handsomely cut or dissected 
leaves, which are extremely variable in form, some being only slightly lobed and 
others deeply cleft and laciniated. It differs from Wier’s in being of upright habit 
and in having the foliage more deeply cut. An occasional cutting back will be of 
advantage to the tree. $1. 
var. lutescens. A variety of the Silver-leaved, of vigorous growth, 
with bright yellow leaves. Its rich bronze shoots in spring, and tender yellow-green 
foliage in summer, will render it a valuable tree for the landscape. $1.
