EUROPEAN LARCH 
This tree is peculiar among evergreens in 
that its needle-like leaves are shed each 
year. There are eight species of the Larch, 
widely distributed throughout the northern 
hemisphere. The lone species of the north- 
eastern United States is the Tamarack. Un- 
like this variety the European Larch is a 
rapid growing pyramidal tree of wonderful 
beauty. In the spring the needles are soft 
light green, which turn golden yellow when 
they mature and drop off in the fall. The 
wood is resinous and durable, used for rail- 
road ties and ship building. Transplants, 4
