MAPLE (Acer) 
yt Real Novelty 
CRIMSON KING 
Acer Platanoides schwedleri nigra. 
Patent No. 735 
About ten years ago a fascinating purple or maroon 
leaved Norway Maple tree was sent to America from 
Europe. It created the same sensation over here as it 
did in Europe. Several specimens were propagated and 
planted along the East Coast as well as on the Pacific 
Coast for observation. The results have been most 
gratifying. It proved perfectly hardy and happy where 
Maples grew and it retained its magnificent leaf color 
throughout the entire summer. The effect is not unlike 
that of the Copper Beech, but in addition, the tips of 
the branches and the young foliage are of a lighter 
shade and glisten brilliantly in the sun. One would 
think the tree was in bloom. 
Whiptrees, 4-5’, $3.25; 5-6’, $4.50; 6-7’, $6.00.
