CHINESE ELM 
The Fastest Growing Permanent Tree Known 
HARDY—EASY TO GROW 
This remarkable Elm for street and lawn is fast 
becoming the leading Elm throughout America. 
It grows faster, is more drouth resistant, longer 
lived, grows larger and is hardier than any other 
shade or street tree grown. It is much finer than 
the ordinary Elm, the foliage is fine and feathery, 
a bright green, and very dense, and the branches 
make almost right angles with the truck instead 
of being in sprays like the common Elm. 
MAKE A FINE HEDGE 
This tree has been sweeping the country by 
leaps and bounds, because of its fast growth, 
drouth resistance, and resistance to the Dutch Elm 
Disease, which is rapidly killing so many of the 
old common American Elm in many parts of the 
country. 
More and more people are using Chinese Elm 
as a hedge plant because they have proved very 
suitable for this purpose. They will withstand 
being trimmed down to almost any desired height 
or can be left to grow naturally for a taller hedge 
or background. The fine, dense foliage and bushy, 
evenly balanced branches make a splendid hedge 
of real worth. For a hedge, plant about 1 to 2 
feet apart.
