ORNAMENTAL TREES 
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.) 
Not Prepaid.

Chinese Elm 
Because of its beauty, its ex- 
tremely rapid growth, its resis- 
tance to disease and insects as 
well as heat and drought, the 
Chinese Elm has become popu- 
lar. Under ordinary conditions, 
it grows 5 feet a year; in just a 
few years it becomes an excel- 
lent shade tree. It is valuable 
for those parts of our country 
where most other trees will not 
thrive where it is hot, dry or in 
alkali soil. In that part of the 
country where Maples, Ameri- 
can Elm or the Honeylocust are 
grown, we recommend the 
planting of Chinese Elm only 
for quick shade. There are 
many homes which would be 
more attractive and more com- 
fortable if some of these quick 
growing Chinese Elm _ were 
planted. (See page 40 for seed- 
lings). Not prepaid.

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 and 
insects as the Chinese Elm. It 
will not be as subject to break- 
age 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.
