BEECH—Fagus 
The Beeches are large-growing, round-topped trees with a tendency 
to hold their lower branches right down to the ground. For this reason, 
they are best suited for rather large lawns where their beauty may develop 
without the necessity of trimming off the bottom branches. The bark of 
Beeches is a striking light gray and on some specimens the dried leaves 
hang on almost all winter.

ELM—Ulmus 
Elms have the ideal vase-shape for planting near the house and along 
streets and drives. The ascending branches permit the breezes to blow 
through and do not obstruct the view. Elms prefer a rather deep, fertile 
soil and appreciate plenty of water in dry weather and fertilizing in spring 
or fall. 
American Elm—U. americana. This tree has been appreciated and widely planted 
from colonial times. Its graceful shape and rapid growth make it an ideal tree for the 
new home owner. It needs no word of praise.
