Flowering Dogwood 
The Dogwood is the showiest and most dramatic 
as well as probably the most popular and beautiful 
of all the American trees. Low, round-headed when 
given a chance to spread, seldom growing to a height 
of more than 40 feet with a trunk greater than a 
foot in diameter. It prefers well-drained, fertile soil 
as it blossoms more profusely in the open, and 
transplants readily at almost any size. The large, 
beautiful, white flowers of spring are followed by 
rich green, round foliage which turns brilliant 
scarlet in the autumn. The fruit colors bright red 
usually before the leaves turn and is an attractive 
food for many birds. It grows naturally from central 
New York to northern Florida and westward to 
eastern Texas and eastern Iowa.

Elm, White 
High, gracefully spreading head, interlaced 
branches and “Y” crotches make the crown of the 
Elm unmistakable when silhouetted on the horizon. 
The American or White Elm is one of our most 
graceful and beloved trees. It frequently attains 
a height of 100 to 125 feet and has a huge rough- 
barked trunk, 6 to 10 feet in diameter; its branches 
divide in an unusual vase-like form. Grows fairly 
rapidly when planted 6 to 10 feet in height. It is 
found from northern Maine, southward through a 
large part of Florida and Texas, and westward to 
the western border of Montana and Wyoming. Its 
natural habitats are rich bottom lands and stream 
banks.

Fringe Tree 
This most beautiful tree is frequently considered 
a shrub as it scldom grows more than 30 feet in 
height and usually with a divided trunk. Because of 
its masses of white blossoms it has several common 
names: Old Man’s Beard, Grandfather's Beard, and 
Snow Flower Tree. It prefers the rich soil of stream 
banks and transplants readily.
