Poplar. 
Populus Caroliniensis. Carolina Poplar, a 
rapid- 
growing native tree of upright growth. After the 
tree has attained a height of 15 to 20 feet, it is ad 
visable to cut the leader. This will cause the tree 
to make a spreading head. The Carolina Poplar re¬ 
sembles the Cottonwood, but is quite distinct.

P. Vesuvius. 
Originated 
by Luther Burbank. 
This 
variety is somewhat like Prunus Pissardii, the Pur¬ 
ple-leaved Plum, but is superior in every way. Its 
fruit is of a deep, rich color with a pleasant, acid 
flavor; not a very prolific bearer, but is more de¬ 
sirable as an ornamental tree on account of its gigan¬ 
tic crimson-colored leaves. Tree a vigorous grower.

Spondias Axillaris. 
Spondias axillaris. {Poupartia). A new deciduous shade 
tree, introduced from China by the Horticultural. Ex¬ 
plorer, Mr. Wilson. This is a most valuable addition 
to our collection of hardy deciduous trees. The tree 
grows from 40 to 75 feet high, with a trunk 3 feet 
in diameter. The branches are massive and form 
an oval or round head. The bark is gray and deeply 
fissured. Insignificant flowers are borne in clusters, 
followed by oval fruit about an inch long. The fruit 
is eaten by the Chinese. We are glad to have the 
opportunity of offering this rare tree.
