} Nursery Grown Native Trees 
Oak, Red 
This gorgeous pyramidal tree lifts its stately 
head to a height of 100 feet. It prefers deep, 
rich soil and is famous for its brilliant autumn 
foliage which seems to blaze from many fertile 
hillsides. Ranges from Canada to South Carolina 
and westward to Dakota. 
Oak, White 
This magnificent tree is one of the most useful 
found in American forests. It commonly attains a 
height of 100 to 140 feet with a trunk diameter of 
4 to 5 feet. Its rich colored foliage makes it es- 
pecially handsome in late autumn and it retains its 
leaves well on into the winter. Prefers deep, rich 
soil and grows generally over a large part of the 
United States from central Maine to northern 
Florida. It is difficult to transplant after it has 
attained a diameter much over 2!/5 inches. 

Oak, Willow 
Magnificent stately tree with erect trunk and 
widely spreading branches. Narrow willow-like 
leaves. It is a native of bogs and stream banks 
from Pennsylvania to Florida. 
Papaw 
The Papaw with its interesting head and delicious 
fruit is scarcely more than a shrub. It seldom 
reaches a height of more than 25 or 30 feet. Pre- 
fers the fertile soil of the lowlands and grows nat- 
urally from western New York, southward to Florida, 
westward to Texas and Nebraska. Grows compara- 
tively rapidly and transplants satisfactorily if proper 
care is taken. 
Persimmon 
This artistic and colorful tree seldom reaches 
more than 45 feet in height with a trunk sometimes 
2 or 2\/p feet in diameter. Its colorful fruit is a 
general favorite, and it should certainly be planted 
much more frequently as it transplants fairly well 
up to a great size. Grows naturally from central 
Pennsylvania, southward throughout Florida and 
westward to central Texas and eastern Kansas. 
Pine, Red 
This splendid tree with an irregular outline crown, 
needles two in a bundle, almost all pointing sky- 
ward, is a fascinating and most decorative pine. 
Prefers the rich slopes along lake and stream banks. 
Grows naturally all through the New England 
States, New York, and part of Pennsylvania, Michi- 
gan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. It transplants easily 
and we believe it should be used more and more.
