SHADE AND ORNAMENTAL 
American Elm 
We like to think of this tree 
as typically ‘‘American.” State- 
ly, upright growing, yet spread- 
ing, hardy and __ long-lived. 
While it is not fast growing, if 
given good care it will develop 
into a large tree in just a few 
years. It is native of Kansas 
and deserves to be planted 
more than it is. The American 
Elm is valuable for street, yard, 
park, farm and wood-lot plant- 
ing. Not affected by freezes. 
(See page 40 for seedlings.)

Chinese Elm 
The most popular and wide- 
ly used shade tree in the Mid- 
dle West. Because of its beauty, 
its extremely rapid growth, its 
resistance to insects, diseases, as 
well as heat and drought, its 
popularity has swept the coun- 
try. Its average growth is five 
feet a year under ordinary con- 
ditions, so it usually makes an 
excellent shade tree in five 
years. (Seedlings, page 40.)

Hybrid Elm 
These trees have been grafted from a selected, mature parent 
tree which has shown every ideal characteristic for a Hybrid Elm. 
The Hybrid Elm, a cross between the American Elm and the 
Chinese Elm, shows all the stability, ruggedness and long life of 
the American Elm, yet it grows just as fast and is just as resistant 
to heat, drought mad insects as the Chinese Elm. It will not be as 
subject to breakage from ice, snow and wind-storm. The Hybrid 
Elm has large leaves like the American Elm and is not twiggy like 
the Chinese Elm. Our supply is very limited. NOT PREPAID.
