FLOWERING TREES /-. SHADE «<«d COLOR 
Especially Useful as Specimens and as Border 
Backgrounds for Flowering Shrubs 
Flowering Trees can often be used for both shade and orna- 
mental effect. They have many uses on the large estates, 
as well as small home grounds. 
APPLE TREES. While the Apple is generally planted for its 
fruit, it is one of our most beautiful ornamental trees. It is 
difficult to imagine a scene more picturesque than Apple trees 
in full blossom. The Apple also makes a satisfactory shade 
tree and produces fruit, which—when ripe—adds to the in- 
terest. Specimen Trees, in choice varieties, selected for orna- 
mental purposes, are twice transplanted and pruned so as to 
,conform with the landscape. 5 yr., 7-8 ft. $4.50 each, 
6 yr. 8-10 ft. $6.00 each. 
ASH, European Mountain (Sorbus aucuparia). A small 
tree especially noted for its orange-red berries in the Fall. 
However, its masses of white bloom in Spring are not to be 
overlooked. 5—6 ft. $2.25 each, $24.00 per doz.; 6-8 ft. $3.00 
each, $33.00 per doz.; 8-10 ft. $4.00 each, 10-12 ft. $6.00 each 
CUCUMBER TREE (Magnolia acuminata). Somewhat re- 
sembles the Tulip Tree, large, light green foliage; cream -col- 
ored, fragrant, Tulip-like flowers in the Spring, 1ollowed by 
red seed pods. 6-8 ft. $3.50 each, 8-10 ft. $5.00 each. 
DOGWOODS (Cou) 
No native tree is more admired and extensively used than the 
Dogwood, which is a shapely, dwarf, rapid grower blooming 
while quite young. May be used as specimens and is especially 
useful at edge of woodland among taller growing trees or as a 
border to an evergreen background, affording a most pleasing 
effect in the Spring when in full blossom. 
The Dogwood may be had in pure white or deep pink. The two 
colors combined in group plantings produce a striking Spring- 
time picture; the flowering season will vary but here in Virginia 
is usually late April, just ahead of Apple blossom time. Four- 
petal blossoms 1 to 2 in. across. Brilliant Autumn foliage and 
red berries which carry well into Winter.
