when once established, they will make a 
yearly growth equal to that of almost any 
other species.

tree. The Pin Oak’s graceful, drooping 
branches support a mass of deeply lobed,

some, upright, and regular in shape. The 
pleasant odor of the flowers is an additional 
recommendation.

noted for its great vigor, large, heart- 
shaped leaves, and very fragrant flowers in 
June. No flowers produce so delicious a 
honey as those of the Am. Linden. Each

ULMUS • Elm 
Americana (American Elm). As the Oak is 
pre-eminent in dignity and majesty the 
Elm is pre-eminent in grace and elegance. 
The graceful, umbrella-shaped top, borne 
high above the other trees, always adds to 
the landscape picture. It is not particular 
as to soil and makes a delightful shade as 
it does not branch low, thus allowing the 
breezes free play. Each

varieties. It will attain sufficient size to

diameter. Every plant has bloomed.
