S. caprea (Pussy Willow). See page 24. 
Taxodium - Bald Cypress 
TAXODIUM distichum. The great lumber tree 
of the far South, but perfectly at home 
here. Will grow in dry or wet soil and 
blends well in either deciduous or ever- 
green plantings. The light green foliage 
is needle-like, the general shape of the 
tree resembles a Spruce. Slow growing, but 
very symmetrical and as durable as an 
Oak; in fact, the lumber is called the 
Quercus Palustris—Pin Oak 
Tilia - Linden 
TILIA americana (4American Linden). Sometimes known as 
Basswood. This native tree is very attractive and will grow 
rapidly when planted in low ground. The leaves are distinctly 
larger than other varieties. The branches are pendulous. 
Makes an excellent shade tree under favorable conditions.
