Malus Hopa 
Morus - Mulberry 
MORUS alba tatarica (Russian Mulberry). This makes a 
round-headed tree, quick of growth and with profuse foli- 
age. It is wonderfully productive, and for anyone wishing 
to attract birds and for chicken runs it cannot be sur- 
passed. Fruit smaller than our native variety.

Malus - Flowering Crab 
The Flowering Crabs have few rivals among 
the gorgecus spring-flowering trees. They are 
hardy, of easy culture, and will thrive in al- 
most any soil. They are available in many 
shades and when used as specimens or mass 
plantings are most effective. Many kinds bear 
very ornamental fruit. No lawn is complete 
without one of these gems.
