. The Fresno Nursery Co. Nurseries (Horticulture) California Fresno Catalogs; Nursery stock California Fresno Catalogs; Trees California Fresno Catalogs; Fruit trees California Fresno Catalogs; Grapes California Fresno Catalogs; Fruit California Fresno Catalogs; Climbing pl. FRESNO, CALIFORNIA 31 Ornamental Department. A Wistaria-covered arbor on the Wilson liome place Evergreen and Deciduous Trees In California, where there is such a scarcity of native trees, especially in the middle and southern parts, it is necessary to plant shade trees. The first cost of these is not great, and the after attention, until they are old enough to care for themselves, should be a pleasure to those who have planted them. For roadside planting we particularly recommend the following: Black Walnut, Catalpa, Elm, Maple, Poplar and Sycamore. DECIDUOUS SHADE TREES Albizzia Julibrissin. Feathery foliage; pink feathery flowers. Alder, European (Alnus glutinosa). A rapid- growing tree, well adapted to moist situa- tions. Almond, Double White (Amygdalus Davidiana alba). First tree to bloom in the spring. Double white flowers appearing before the leaves. Ash, American White. Broad, round head and dense foliage. Bald Cypress. A deciduous coniferous tree of slender habit. Beech (Fagus). Among the most beautiful of deciduous trees, with rich, glossy foliage. Do best in a cool, damp climate. European (F. sylvatica). Compact head with foliage of deep, dark, glossy green. Birch, European White (Betula alba). A rap- id-growing tree with silvery white bark, and slender, drooping branches. Bird Cherry (Cerasus padus). Wide-spreading tree with long racemes of white flowers in spring and bearing a small black fruit, resembling wild cherries. Paper Mulberry (Broussonetia papyrifera). A fine tree for city streets; of rapid growth and forming a compact head. Remarkable for its cylindrical catkins. Catalpa. Highly ornamental trees with large, bright green foliage and beautiful white flowers in showy panicle
