W, RUNDLE A tree of outstanding merit that should come in for more attention than it has formerly |had, is the Blue Beech, or Car- 'pinus caroliniana, It may be seen Attention pyramid shaped tree, rather col umnar in form. It is quite com- pact and a durable type possess ing remarkable longevity, As al permanent plant for screening purposes or for planting in re. areas Vi its natural habitat stricted out the hardwood region of Southern Ontario and Quebec to northern Georgian Bay, its bluish - grey bark readily dis. tinguishing it from its neighbors, As a rule, it shows a preference for the edges of streams and 'marshes and is seldom found in pen sunlight, Its principal advantage for 'ourposes of landscaping, aside rom its very handsome appear. ance, is that it never grows too large for today's small proper ties. One would class it as a medium size tree, seldom reach. ing a height of over 40 feet, It stands alone to great advan- tage, its delicate foliage and graceful form making it a good single specimen, while fits au- tumn coloring equals that of the Maple. Its European counterpart grows to a somewhat larger size, with fairly similar foliage, habit and shape, but it does not have the brilliant fall .oloring the Carolin- ian boasts, This latter variety of Beech is the Carpinus betulus fas. strie is an excellent choice, Both the American and Euro- pean Blue Beech will stand con. siderable trimming and hence] make a very good tall hedge In| most locations, since they are able to thrive in shade and even| under cover of other larger trees, Le Notre, the famous 17th cen- tury French landscape architect, made wide use of the Hornbeam, and many of these plantings may still be seen in the palatial gar- dens of France which he design. ed for the nobility, | While this species is of fairly slow growth habit, it will thrive| in almost any soll and has the added appeal of being quite re. sistant to insect attack, All in all, this tree will prove riost satisfactory in any number of locations and for a wide vari ety of uses, whether for hedging or as a specimen tree which wil provide ample shade in years to come, without taking over the entire garden as some of our fer, One bedroom with built-in bookshelves might well he used As 8 study, guest room or even an office, It's convenient to a powder room, too.
