BAUHINIA PURPUREA 
SUGAR PLUM TREE 
Lagunaria pattersoni. Small narrow tree, often a shrub, with hand- 
some grey-green foliage and neat mallow-like flowers of rose-pink. 
Recommended for sea-coast planting but does well inland too! 20°. 
MAGNOLIA 
Magnolia grandiflora, Southern Magnolia. Large growing evergreen 
trees always neat in its glossy foliage. The immense white fragrant 
water-lily-like flowers appear throughout the summer. Give gen- 
erous amounts of water for better blooms. 
OLIVE 
Olea europea. The ornamental value of Olives has been recognized 
a long time but not practiced as much as it should. The old gnarled, 
picturesque grey trunks and wide spreading masses of greyish green 
foliage are a prize in themselves. Even if we don’t grow them for 
the fruits an olive grove with trees 25 feet apart in even rows is 
attractive beyond description. Olives almost thrive on neglect once 
they are established. Hardy. 
FOR DRY HOT CLIMATES 
Parkinsonia aculeata, Jerusalem Thorn. Small tree, especially use- 
ful in dry hot places, particularly on the desert. The fluffy green 
appearance of the foliage with the green bark is enlivened in early 
summer by beautiful yellow flowers in equally airy panicles. 18°. 
STURDY OAKS 
Quercus agrifolia, California Live Oak. One of the finest trees for 
the home grounds or street planting, the native Oak, with its pic- 
turesque habit and evergreen foliage is easy to grow if given care 
and careful watering. 
CAROLINA CHERRY 
Prunus caroliniana, Carolina Cherry. Dwarf round headed tree or 
large shrub with excellent bronze tipped green foliage and fuzzy 
white flowers followed by black cherries. Wonderful as street trees 
or in the background. 
Evergreen Trees are Desirable Specimens for Year 
Around Beauty—Many types available.

berries. The leaves are darker green and less feathery. Hardy. Very 
clean habit of growth.

drooping branches and bright green leaves. Rapidly becoming pop- 
ular as a street and shade tree. Hardy, but not evergreen north.
