Platanus - Sycamore 
PLATANUS occidentalis (American Plane Tree). Our native Syca- 
more which is not appreciated. However, if you want a tree of 
rapid growth, rugged in character, picturesque in winter with its

j 
white bark, you should not overlook this grand old tree. Fine 
for woodland and paddocks. Tolerant of soot and smoke, and 
therefore is much used as a street tree in cities. Each

Poplar - Populus 
POPULUS nigra italica (Lombardy Poplar). A tall, slender tree of 
rapid growth, reaching a great height and not to be confused 
with Carolina Poplar. Specimens often reach 50 feet, with a 
spread of less than 10 feet, and for this reason when trees are 
needed for narrow places, between buildings, congested lawns, 
narrow avenues, Lombardy Poplar may be used to advantage. 
Because of its great height and quick growth it is recommend2d 
for backgrounds of buildings, to add character to plantings or 
to offset straight or bare lines; for screening unsightly views, 
fire protection from close buildings, or windbreaks—and_ for 


P. alba bolleana (Bolleana Poplar).

Just because the Carolina Pop- 
lar is Gn enormous weed and nothing else, one should not dis- 
criminate against all the Poplar family. Bolleana Poplar has 
glittering green leaves, silvered underneath, and makes an at- 
tractive display against the sky when they are set in motion by 
a gentle breeze. The bark is gray, giving a pleasing winter 
effect. It is a fast growing, slender columnar tree, a little wider 
than Lombardy, which it resembles at a distance and for which 
it should be used as a substitute.

out the old planting, and 
replacing with Taxus, is a

lovely home can be made 
more attractive.
