Aleurites 
(Candlo Nut) 
Aleurites Fordii. The Tung Oil or Wood Oil Tree of 
China. A medium-sized tree indigenous to central 
China; reaches a height of 20 to 30 feet, with a 
spread of 25 to 30 feet. The rather large, pinkish 
white flowers, which appear in large numbers in 
April, with the broad, handsome, green leaves fol¬ 
lowing, make the tree a valuable ornamental. It 
thrives best in well-drained sand-clay loams. The 
tree is reported to live to the age of 30 years or 
more. The apple-like fruits contain several large 
nut-like seeds which yield the valuable tung oil or 
China wood oil of commerce, used extensively in 
paints and varnishes. Commercial plantings should 
be confined to cheap lands, as the probable yield of 
oil will not pay for the use of more valuable ones. 
Experimental plantings of this tung tree have been 
started in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and South 
Carolina. It is quite distinct from the Candlenut 
Tree (Aleurites moluceana), in being hardier and 
deciduous. This tree is becoming very popular as 
an ornamental. It ie perfectly hardy at Augusta.

able shade trees for avenue or street planting; of

transplant, the tree must be pruned to n single 
stem, the roots kept moist and not exposed to the 
air, so that they will not dry out.
