TREES for SHADE and 
ORNAMENTAL USE 
STURDY, WELL ROOTED, FIELD GROWN 


GINKGO or MAIDENHAIR TREE 
THE OLDEST TREE KNOWN TO MAN 
Records show this to be the only tree that is mentioned in the 
ancient writings of Confucius. Beautiful, finely cut foliage and 
erect, graceful habit of growth make it desirable. A mature speci- 
men is almost priceless. Perfectly hardy anywhere. Drops all of 
its leaves within a few hours after the 
first one drops in the fall. 3- to 5-ft trees: 
$2.50 each; 2 for $4.50. 
























NOTE: BEFORE 
ORDERING SHADE OR 
ORNAMENTAL TREES. 
Due to transportation con- 
ditions and the rough handl- 
ing shipments receive, it is 
impossible for us to make 
shipment of orders for only 
a single shade, fruit or orna- 
mental tree. Where two cr 
more trees can be shipped 
together they more or less 
brace each other, but single 
trees get broken in transit 
and the experiences of the 
past few years have proved 
to us the futility of trying to 
get a single tree to a cus- 
tomer in good condition. If 
you need but one tree, may- 
be you can find a neighbor 
who needs one or more and 
the shipment can be combin- 
ed and sent to one address. 
Tulip Tree—the State Tree of 
Indiana. Inset shows the odd Tulip- 
like blooms which appear on trees 
as they mature. 
WEEPING WILLOW 
The well known graceful Weeping Willow whose long drooping 
branches, densely covered with fresh green leaves, make it one of the 
best loved trees. Very rapid grower. 4- to 6-ft. trees, $1.25 each; 2 
for $2.25. 
PAUL’S DOUBLE SCARLET HAWTHORN 
Popular low growing tree that is hardy all through the States. In 
May and June it is covered with double scarlet flowers which are fol- 
lowed by red berries. The foliage is a rich green which cofors to a mass 
of brilliant hues in the fall. We give this tree top rating for specimen 
planting. Large, 4- to 6-ft., freld-grown trees, $2.50 each. 






PLEASE NOTE 
Paul's Scarlet Hawthorn cannot be shipped into the following states: 
Caliornia, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Arizona 
and Florida.

and the State Tree of Indiana. Tall grow- 
ing, of shapely habit, and its large irreg- 
ular leaves make it ideal for quick shade. 
Bears numerous Tulip-like flowers in 
spring. Blooms are yellow, marked at in- 
side of base with orange. 3- to 4-ft. trees, 
$1.25 each; 2 for $2.00.
