ORNAMENTAL ° FLOWERING 
AND SHADE TREES 
For beauty and grandeur no other group of plants offers so much. The bold masses of color, foliage, 
fruit and shade they furnish are indispensable. Their proper use will improve the most barren situation 
and give new life and charm and movement to established plantings by their interesting patterns of light, 
shadow and form.
