SHADE AND FLOWERING TREES 
For shade, select long-lived trees that increase in beauty yearly; although 
where immediate privacy is the objective, short-lived rapid growing vari- 
eties have their place. The Flowering Trees provide delightfully colorful and 
fragrant specimens and accents for lawn and gardens.
