Catalpa Bungei 
SWEET GUM (Llquidamber Styraciflua). Another 
native tree that should be more appreciated. It is 
not of rapid growth, but the glossy foliage in sum¬ 
mer, the brilliant color in fall and the unusual 
appearance of the young branches with corky bark 
in the winter are considerations that make it es¬ 
pecially valuable.
