Shade and flowering trees
have many uses in the land
scape. They are essential for a
beautiful setting and for graci
ous living. They not only pro
vide shade and color but can be
used for framing the house,
background, screening and for
windbreaks.
Now is a good time to check
your landscape and plant trees
that will blend, harmoniously,
with the surroundings.
Right now I am having my
annual battle with leaves. How
ever, this is only temporary
because I am dutifully raking
them up and carrying them to the
compost pile where they will
work for me later on. If they
are left in the street they clog
the drains when floated in by
heavy rains. If too many are
shredded with a rotary mover
on the grass, you may have
trouble.
Perhaps a list of some of
the more desirable trees will
be helpful to you in making
selections. First the small
flowering trees: dogwood, sour-
wood, crapemyrtle, flowering
crabapples (there are many
kinds to select from), service-
berry, Japanese cherries,
sweet bay, goldenchaln tree,
mimosa (only wilt resistant
sorts), white fringe tree, Amer
ican mountain ash, saucer mag
nolia, American holly, flower
ing plum.
Ctf the shade trees there are
the oaks: live, laurel, Darling
ton, white, northern red, scar
let, willow, shingle, chestnut,
swamp chestnut and southern
red; the Maples: Norway, syca
more, red, sugar and southern
sugar maple.
others Include red and green
ash, Kentucky coffee tree,
American beech, southern
magnolia, linden (basswood),
white ash, pecan, hickory, pine,
hackberry, river birch and
yellow birch.
Your local nurseryman can
help you with the lists supplied.
If he cannot, let me know and I
will try to put you in touch
with a source of supply.
