A Honeylocust in the garden of Mr. and Mrs. 
Richardson Wright at Oyster River, Chatham, 
Mass. The grass beneath Honeylocust is uni- 
formly good, in contrast to that under some of 
the denser foliaged trees. 
THORNLESS HONEY LOCUST 
Gleditsia triacanthos inermis 
This is a form of the Honey Locust which, believe it 
or not, has no thorns. (Actually, you may find one or 
two, occasionally. ) 
This is the variety preferred by towns and cities for 
street planting, and by people who have small children.

For the Connoisseur 
In the garden of the eminent horticulturist, Jacques Le- 
gendre of The Gulf Stream Nurseries in Virginia, (in sight 
and feel of the Atlantic), the only two shade trees he has are 
Thornless Honey Locusts. It is significant, that in a garden 
full of Magnolias, rare Hollies, Evergreen Barberries etc., ad 
infinitum, that the two trees selected by this horticulturist and 
connoisseur are of this variety.

THE MORAINE LOCUST 
Here’s a variety, recently introduced and patented 
by the Siebenthaler Nurseries of Dayton, Ohio. 
It is the variety chosen by many as it has no thorns 
and does not bear seed pods. It must therefore be 
asexually propagated, a more expensive process, but it 
is surely worth it.

SHADBUSH Amelanchier canadensis 
“The Shadbush is in bloom! The shad are running!” 
Since colonial days the white flowers of this shrub 
have been the signal to coastal folks that the shad (or 
herring) are tumbling up the streams from the sea, 
in a mad rush to spawn in the upper waters. So down 
to the runs, — for fish for the pan, — or to salt down. 
Yes, the Shadbush, or Juneberry (Amelanchier) is 
truly a plant tied in with the sea, — a plant really at 
home along the coast. 
In early May the combination of white flower 
clusters and gray downy leaves unfolding on clumpy 
plants bring billowing clouds to the landscape. In June 
the deep maroon, edible berries ripen. 
The habit of this plant makes it useful for specimen 
use, for borders and tall dense screens, in sun or par- 
tial shade, any type of soil. 
The Shadbush will be an interesting, satisfactory 
and permanent addition to your seaside landscape.
