The Elm has proved very successful in Texas as a shade tree, and is being more ex- tensively planted now than formerly. Like the China Tree, it grows well in rocky soil, where most trees would die. Our trees are all nursery- grown, thus being young, vigorous, straight, up- right and well-rooted. Stately, umbrageous and long-lived trees are the result of proper planting with the Elm.
