Salix - Willow 
SALIX babylonica (Babylon Weeping Wil- 
low). One of the most graceful of all 
the Willows. Makes a round-topped 
tree, and when it attains some size its 
long, pendent branches are most effec- 
tive. 
S. elegantissima (Thurlow Weeping Wil- 
low). Of rather upright growth when 
young but as it attains height and age 
its long, drooping silvery branches make 
it the most effective of all the Willows. 
Rapid grower in either moist or other 
good soil. Fine for specimens or screens. 
Best of the Weeping Willows. 
S. niobe (Golden Weeping Willow). The 
best of the Golden Willows. Slender 
leaves, green above and silvery below.

Taxodium - Bald Cypress 
TAXODIUM distichum. The great lumber tree of the 
. vulgaris (European Linden). Sim- 
far South, but native and perfectly at home here. Will 
grow in dry or wet soil and blends well in either de- 
ciduous or evergreen plantings. The light green fo- 
liage is needle-like and the general shape of the tree 
resembles a Spruce. Considered slow growing, but very 
symmetrical and as durable as an Oak; in fact, the 
lumber is called the ‘’wood eternal.’

UlImus - Elm 
ULMUS americana (American Elm). A 
vigorous native tree. It is rapid in 
growth, with long, spreading, and pen- 
dent branches forming giant arches 
over roads and streets; as a lawn tree 
is quick to make a marked effect. The 
wood. is tough, the leaves are moderate 
in size, and make a permanent tree for 
shade. The beetle that defoliates the 
European Elms usually does not attack 
these.

grafted, upright type invaluable in nar- 
row spaces. Its clean growth, large, 
deep green, heavily plaited leaves,

and invite your inspection.

U. parvifolia (Chinese Elm). A new, rapid- 
growing tree that does especially well 
in difficult situations, like city soot and 
gases, dry and poor ground, narrow 
street plots, etc. Leaves smaller than 
our native Elm, habit more pendent, 
and of course, much more rapid. Only 
drawback possible is sleet damage and 
Elm-beetle injury. Plant for twenty to 
thirty years’ duration. We have the 
North China strain only and it will 
make up as quickly as a Willow.
