Norway Maple 
Many of our streets are lined 
with the Norway Maple, well 
liked for its pleasing and familiar 
symmetrical dome-shaped head 
and ability to grow under city 
conditions. Its dense leaves are 
rich green in color and held on 
the tree fully 2 weeks longer in 
the Fall than those of other 
Maples finally dropping without 
much change in color. One of the 
best trees for street planting or 
for a lawn specimen where good 
form and shadeare needed. (60ft.)
