in ornamental planting because of its appearance during the season of 
fruiting. 
Eleyi. Height 25 to 30 feet. Attractive reddish foliage in the spring 
changing to pink. Single pink flowers followed by showy red fruit. 
Hopa (Red Flowering Crab). Height 20 to 25 feet. Beautiful up- 
right-growing tree with attractive foliage. Entirely covered with rose- 
colored flowers in April. Fruit red inside and out, hanging on until late 
autumn. A very popular variety. 
Ioensis. Height 15 to 20 feet. Our native Crab of Minnesota. One 
of the most glorious flowering dwarf trees that we have and one that 
certainly should be planted more than it is. Its pink, single flowers are 
borne in profusion in the early spring and its dark green foliage and 
somewhat pyramidal growth make it a desirable tree. 
Red Silver. Height 15 to 20 feet. Foliage small, purplish. Flowers 
a little lighter than the foliage. This tree presents a lovely sight when 
in bloom. Very hardy. 
HACKBERRY — Celtis 
Occidentalis. Height 50 feet. A valuable shade tree of rapid, 
spreading growth. Limbs seldom broken by winds. A tree which should 
be planted more than it is. A clean tree.

a round, compact head. Dark green foliage, large spikes of white flowers, 
slightly marked with red. Does well in the shade.

fern-like foliage. Very picturesque. A native tree in Minnesota, but 
rather rare. Its seed pods are large, sometimes three or four inches in 
length. Very hardy. 
LARIX — Larch 
Japanese. Height 30 to 40 feet. Rapid growing tree with dark 
green foliage. Resembles an evergreen, but does not retain its foliage 
in the winter.

tree. Large leaves and fragrant flowers. Very desirable on account of 
its very luxuriant foliage.

hardy.
