Maple Trees (Silverleaf) 
SHADE TREES 
ASH (Fraxinus). Ornamental tree. Hardy, with rather large leaves 
and small flowers appearing before the leaves, and greenish. 
They are valuable as street and park trees, grow into tall broad- 
headed trees with light green foliage. 60 feet high. 
BEECH (Fagus). Tall. Deciduous, hardy trees of noble, symmetri- 
cal habits, with smooth light grey bark, and clean dark green or 
copper foliage which is rarely attacked by insects or fungi. They 
are among the most ornamental and beautiful trees for park plant- 
ing, especially in spring, with the young foliage of a tender, deli- 
cate green and the graceful drooping heads of flowers. 
Green Beech. Foliage dark green. 
Copper Beech. Foliage rich copper hue. 
BIRCH, CUTLEAF WEEPING (Betula Laciniata). The Birch are con- 
spicuous on account of their colored bark, which is a gleaming 
white all year-round. They are very ornamental park trees, hardy. 
Their foliage is rarely attacked by insects and turn an orange- 
yellow color in the fall. Their graceful habit, slender, vine-like, 
pendulous branches and picturesque trunks make them conspicu- 
ous features of the landscape, and the light lacey appearance of 
the foliage make a striking outline against the sky. 40 ft. tall. 
BIRCH, EUROPEAN (Betula Alba). The Europeans differ from 
the Cutleaf in foliage and habit of growth. Leaves are round or 
full instead of deeply incised, and lacey, and the branches grow 
upright instead of pendulous. 60 ft. tall. 
BOX ELDER (Acer Negundo). Large, rapid-growing tree of spreading 
habit, thriving best in moist and rich soil. Much prized in the west, 
where it withstands cold and dryness. Leaves variegated with 
broad white margins. Probably the most effective of all variegated 
hardy trees.

CHERRY (Japanese Flowering). The Japanese flowering cherries 
are singularly beautiful and attractive, and in the spring when in 
bloom are extremely showy, ornamentals, and should be better 
known in this country. These are the trees so generally planted in 
the parks, temple grounds, cemeteries and streets of Tokyo. Its 
flowering is the occasion of a popular festival in the city of Tokyo. 
Visitors come from miles around to our nursery to see these
