PICTURESQUE BIRCH TREES 
18 WHITE BIRCH CLUMPS 
35 ft. In naturalization, as a lawn specimen, or as a thin screen for a 
picture window, this lovely, multiple-stemmed tree is most effective. The 
white bark of its 3 or more trunks adds great charm to the landscape 
picture. As a screen it should be planted 10 to 15 feet away from the 
average window. The foliage is not too dense and tends to soften, 
rather than hide, the sharp architectural lines of a building. Growth is 
gracefully upright with horizontal branches. The foliage is a lovely, 
translucent, medium green. Same culture as the Cut-Leaf Weeping Birch. 
(Not sold in fall.) Not prepaid, thrifty, 3 to 4 ft. trees with 3 or 
more stems, $2.75 each; 2 for $5.20. 
19 GRACEFUL CUT-LEAF WEEPING BIRCH 
(Betula pendula laciniata). 35 ft. Graceful, weeping branches, finely 
cut foliage and shimmering white bark make this one of our most 
beautiful ornamental trees. Even in winter, without foliage, the delicate 
pendulous branches make a lovely silhouette against a background of sky 
and naked trees. While not particular as to soil, the Cut-Leaf Weeping 
Birch prefers a moist location and a sunny spot. Not prepaid. Reasonably 
priced in a 5 to 6 ft. size, at $3.60 each; 2 for $6.90.
