FLOWERING TREES—Continued 
FRANKLINIA—Franklin Tree 
F. alatamaha (Gordonia). A small tree of extraordinary beauty in 
the Fall. Attaining 20 ft. in height, the graceful branches sweep the 
ground if allowed natural growth. If the lower branches are removed, 
the trunk appears smooth, silky and grey. The marble-like buds open 
about September 1 to large, creamy white flowers with deep, orange- 
yellow centers. While still flowering, the shiny green leaves take on the 
brilliant crimson and scarlet Fall coloring, a strikingly beautiful sight. 
The Franklin Tree prefers full sun and a somewhat moist but well- 
drained acid soil near lake, pool or stream. M
