Koelreuteria paniculata (Golden Rain Tree). A most 
beautiful hardy ornamental shade tree from China, 
with broad, flat, spreading head of large com¬ 
pound-ovate leaves, which are of a dull red, when first 
appearing in the spring, later assume a dark bright 
green. During the latter part of May large panicles of 
orange-yellow flowers are produced for at least three 
weeks. These completely envelop the entire head of 
the tree. The flowers are followed by bladder-like 
seed pods, which makes the tree very attractive for

several weeks after the blooming period. We recom¬ 
mend this tree highly. Height 25 feet, each io
