It is a very graceful tree, hardy, and is valuable for street planting, or in locations where a rapid spreading tree is needed. Specimen trees set out here on our grounds 8 years ago are 25 feet high and measure 6 to 7 inches in diameter at the butt. We have an ex- ceptionally fine stock of these trees,. Weir's Cut-Leaf Maple trim, straight, clean-bodied, which we offer in several sizes to fit the need. 5 to 7 ft., 35 cts. each, $3 for 10 ; 6 to 8 ft., 50 cts. each, $ for 10; 8 to 10 ft., 75 cts. each, $7 for 10. Weir's Cut-Leaf. A variety of the silver. One of the most remarkable and beauti- ful of trees, with lance-cut leaves, about as rapid of growth as the Silver, with new shoots slender and drooping, giving it a wonderfully graceful appearance. An abundance of the slender-lobed leaves, set on stalks tinted with red on the upper side, gives a rich light green ground in which an occasional dash of red is seen, making the whole decidedly attractive. We are enabled to offer this variety in the same sizes and at the same prices named on the Silver Maple. 5 to 7 ft., 35 cts. each, $3 for 10; 6 to 8 ft., 50 cts. each, $ for 10; 8 to 10 ft., 75 cts. each, $7 for 10. POPLAR, Carolina. The most rapid grower of them all. Makes good shade in three years. Foliage a beautiful, glossy green. Valuable for street or lawn ; also excel- lent for screen or wind-break. 50 cts. each. Lombardy. A well-known variety, remark- able for its tall spire-like form, and erect, rapid growth. Grows to height of 100 to 150 feet. 50
