The *MORAINE LOCUST 
*Plant Patent No. 836 
The MORAINE LOCUST is a round headed tree when young but tall 
and vase-shaped when older, attaining a height of 80 to 100 feet. 
It grows more rapidly than the common type 
of locusts because of the absence of seed pods 
and thorns. This attribute, together with the 
small leaflets which mostly drift into the lawn 
between the blades of grass, makes little fall 
clean-up necessary. It stands pruning well but MARSHALL NURSERIES 
very little is necessary since the lower branches 
it desirable for narrow street planting of small 
self-prune as the top grows wider, This makes ARLINGTON, NEBRASKA 
properties, as sufficient clearance can be main- 
tained for any type of traffic.
