Acer Japonicum. Japanese Maple. 
For manv years it was considered impossible to grow 
Japanese Maples in this section, but where the trees 
are given the proper care and attention and planted in 
a shady situation where they are protected from the 
afternoon summer sun. these beautiful plants will give 
most satisfactory results. The Japanese Maples com¬ 
bine many attractive features, both in shape and color 
of foliage. The foliage is delicately and finely cut, and 
the decorative value of these Maples has long been rec¬ 
ognized by all lovers of beautiful trees. 
The best effect is secured by planting the various 
kinds in a bed; thus a pleasing color 'effect is given. 
For this purpose the plants should be set about 3 to 4 
feet apart. 
We offer about 10 or 12 of the best, most distinct and 
hardiest sorts.
