Acer palma- tum aitrevm lias intense yellow foliage and is reliably hardy. This, with Jtropnrpureum and its form with dissected foliajre, are the hardiest of the many varieties catalogued. We have found all the other varieties liable to he winter-killed in New England. The accompanying cut is that of a fine specimen of Atropurpureum dissectum. A. polymorphum. Japan Maple. C.
