Lombardy Poplar 
Tall, slender growing tree for formal planting. Rapid grower and at a dis¬ 
tance the mature trees appear as tall sentinels. Dark green leaves, lighter 
shade on the under side. The roots of the Lombardy Poplar will not grow into 
and clog sewers, etc., as did the old Carolina Poplar. 5- to 6-ft. trees, 35c 
each; 10 for $3.00. 6- to 8-ft. trees, 50c each; 10 for $4.00.

we offer a 4- to 5-ft. grade in 
Lombardy Poplars. Plant them 
5 to 6 feet apart. A real value 
at this low price. Only 
IO for $ 2—5 for $ 1.25 
Bolleana Poplar 
One of the finest of all the Pop¬ 
lars. Tree grows erect and symmet¬ 
rical like the Lombardy in shape. 
Long lived. Bark of soft, light green 
and foliage of wonderful color and 
density, silver-gray on the under 
side. We have some nice specimens, 
5 to 6 ft. tall at only 75c each; 
10 for $6.00. 
Maples 
Lombardy Poplar 
Cut-Leaf Weeping Birch 
Cuf-Leaf Weeping Birch 
No other tree occupies quite the place 
in the hearts of home builders that this 
graceful tree does. Its white bark, 
pendulous branches, delicate green foli¬ 
age, deeply cut leaves, endear it to all 
who want a tree both for shade and 
ornament. A beautiful effect is created 
by planting three of them as a triangle, 
about 20 feet apart. Nice straight 5- 
to 6-ft. trees, $2.00 each; 3 for $5.00. 
Weeping Willow 
The well-known graceful Weeping 
Willow whose long drooping branches, 
densely covered with fresh green leaves, 
make it one of the best loved trees. 
Very rapid grower. 4- to 5-ft. trees, 
60c each; 3 for $1.50. 
NORWAY. This is an exceptionally 
fine, hardy, large-leaved shade tree. 
Noted for its resistance to disease 
and for its long life. Nice heavy- 
rooted trees, 6 to 8 ft. tall, only 
$1.50 each; 5 for $6.00. 
SCHWEDLER'S RED MAPLE. Noted for 
its beautiful foliage. Comes out a 
rich ruby-red in spring, gradually 
changes to purplish green, then in 
fall colors to bright shades of red 
and purple. Habit of growth similar 
to Norway. One of the finest Maples 
for shade. 6- to 8-ft. trees, $2.00 
each; 5 for $8.00. 
SILVER MAPLE. The fastest growing of 
the Maples. Much used for street 
planting because they make a good, 
quick shade. Foliage of a light green, 
silvery on the under side and slightly 
cut-leaved. Color beautifully in the 
fall. Not as long lived as the Nor¬ 
way or Schwedler's Maples, but will 
grow quickly and provide good shade 
for the ordinary lifetime. Nice 6- to 
8-ft. trees, 75c each; 5 for $3.50. 
Schwedler's Red Maple 
Chinese Elm 
The fastest growing shade tree 
known today. It is much used in 
the arid sections of the west be¬ 
cause of its extreme hardiness and 
the ease with which it can be grown. 
Equally valuable for windbreaks or 
for specimen planting. May also be 
planted 18 inches apart and kept 
sheared for hedging.
