10 THE DANIELS NURSERY 
DANIELS SHADE TREES 
No outdoor living room is complete without 
the cool shade of properly placed trees. Then 
too, they furnish a suitable framing for both 
close and distant views in the landscape and 
when used for screening effects add a comfort- 
able feeling of privacy. 
As shade trees take a much longer time to 
reach their most useful size than do most other 
plants, we suggest planting without delay. A 
year lost now can never be regained. DO IT 
NOW! 
And because of their relatively slow severe 
ment, only the best transplanted and careful 
trained trees should be planted. Daniels hardy, 
northern grown trees have well developed root 
systems which insure you quick and certain 
growth. 
Twelve Outstanding 
Shade Trees 
ASH, AMERICAN WHITE—A tall growing na- 
tive tree. Straight, clean growth, round head 
and dense foliage. In autumn the foliage 
coloring is unusually beautiful. 
BIRCH, WHITE—A beautiful, graceful, upright 
growing tree famed for its attractive bark. A 
favorite for lawn tree planting. Effective 
when planted singly or in groups. If planted 
three or four in one clump one will get the 
natural effect of native growing trees. 
BIRCH, CUTLEAF WEEPING—One of the most 
admired of all lawn trees. Distinguished for 
its unusual grace in character and outline. 
Its white bark, long drooping branches and 
finely cut foliage give a particularly artistic 
touch to the landscape. 
CRAB APPLE, HOPA—A very attractive orna- 
mental tree with large red blossoms in the 
spring followed by red fruits. Leaves color 
beautifully in the fall. 
CRAB, RED SILVER—A valuable new addition 
to the small ornamental trees of the North- 
west. Early spring flowers are deeper and 
more brilliant in hue than Hopa, but not 
quite as large. Foliage has a distinctly reddish 
color, overcast with silvery pubescense. 
ELM, AMERICAN—The most popular tree for 
shade, street and lawn plantings. A rapid 
grower and long lived. 
SOFT or SILVER MAPLE—A hardy, quick 
growing shade tree which is of special value 
where immediate shade is wanted. Vigorous, 
healthy and attractive.

HARD MAPLE 
HARD MAPLE (Sugar Maple)—One of the most 
desired shade and ornamental trees. A sym- 
metrical tree of great beauty. Deeply lobed, 
dark green leaves taking on beautiful vivid 
tints in the fall. 
MOUNTAIN ASH—One of the most popular of 
the small lawn trees. White flowers in spring 
followed by large clusters of orange red ber- 
ries which remain throughout the winter. 
Finely divided foliage. 
NEWPORT PLUM—The best all summer red 
foliage tree for the North. The typical plum 
blossoms of early spring are backed by the 
crimson of the newly unfolding leaves. A 
small to medium sized tree of striking color. 
BOLLEANA POPLAR—Probably the most de- 
sirable of all the slender, upright growing 
trees. Its spirelike, columnar form and glossy 
green leaves with downy white undersides 
have made it exceedingly popular where a 
strong vertical accent is desired in the land- 
scape. 
NIOBE WEEPING WILLOW—The best of the 
weeping willows. A clean type of tree, free 
from litter of broken branches and other trash 
so common in some willows. Its form is that 
of a graceful weeping tree and this, with its 
- beautiful golden bark, makes it exceedingly 
attractive in both summer and winter. A very 
rapid grower. 
A beautiful shade tree is a thing of beauty and a joy forever.
