Sassafras 

Nursery Grown Native Trees 
Pine, White 
This magnificent monarch of the forest is stately 
and beautiful with its pyramidal crown and irides- 
cent green foliage the entire year around. Grows 
frequently to a height of 180 to 200 feet with a 
trunk 4 to 5 feet in diameter. It transplants readily 
and is attractive at all stages. Grows naturally 
from far up in Canada, throughout the New Eng- 
land States, New York, most of Pennsylvania, south- 
ward along the Appalachian Mountains to Ten- 
nessee. 
Plum, American or Wild 
This beautiful, low, round-headed tree seldom 
grows more than 25 or 30 feet in height. It is a 
favorite for its masses of beautiful blossoms in the 
spring and its delicious fruit later in the season. 
Grows naturally over a wide area of rich, moist 
lands from Massachusetts and central New York, 
southward almost to central Florida. 
Poplar, Carolina 
This huge tree with a stately, high-headed crown, 
towering often to a height of 100 feet with a trunk 
7 or 8 feet in diameter grows naturally from Maine 
to Florida, westward to the Rocky Mountains. We 
cannot recommend it for use in planting unless it is 
put back where it belongs—near the rivers, streams, 
and lakes, at a distance from dwellings. 
Red-bud 
This small, artistic, round-headed tree occasionally 
grows to a height of 45 feet. Its exquisite pro- 
fusion of pink flowers form a beautiful contrast in 
the early spring with the white flowers of the 
Dogwood. It prefers rich, fertile ground and 
will grow either in the shade or in the open. Grows 
throughout most of Pennsylvania, southward along 
the foothills to Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, 
westward to Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. 
Sassafras 
This tree with an angular crown and fascinatingly 
variegated foliage is a familiar sight from central 
Vermont to central Florida, westward to Texas, Kan- 
sas, and lowa, interesting at all times of the year— 
beautiful blossoms and dark blue almost purple 
fruit, bright yellow foliage in the autumn—enough 
cannot be said in its favor. It attains a height of 
80 to 90 feet with a trunk 4 to 6 feet in diameter.
