A carnea--This species of horse chestnut has proved to be quite successful at Ottawa, although it probably not hardy farther north or on the prairies. This tree is slower! growing than the horse chestnut but similar in other respects except for the showy pink bloom. Our tree is now 12 years old but only 10 feet high. In a more sheltered home garden and with watering faster growth would be expected. Amelanchier canadensis -- Shadbush. This is a small na- tive tree well worthy of con- sideration, It grows from 10 to 30 feet high and has abundant white cherrylike blossoms. in the spring. Its birchlike leaves give light shade during summer and in the fall produce a bril- liant effect. The tree also has nice silvery-gray bark with in- teresting dark striping. Chionanthus tree. This is a very neat small ' tree, especially if it is kept pruned to a single stem. It never grows over i5 feet, gives dense shade and will tolerate shade. In June it produces an abundance of filmy lilac-like white flowers, It gives no spe- cial fall effect but female plants proguce an abundance of deep- blue fruits, which are quite showy during September and , if a male specimen is lanted nearby. This tree is not hardy north of Ottawa. Crataegus (Hawthorns) Many species of these trees are admirably suited to our cli- mate. One must avoid the double scarlet English haw- thorn, namely Paul's Scarlet haw, in areas north of Toronto, since this tree is likely to suf- fer in such climates. A variety akin to this, the Toba haw, which originated at the Experi- mental Station, Morden, Mani- toba, is pe cagece hardy and has attractive "pink double flowers. Most hawthorns have flowers, which are red Seen Of Great Importance The New Tree greater than 15 or 20 feet and it is a lovely tree to grow. Its Jarge pinnate leaves turn yellow in the fall and the bark of its twigs and branches is yellow so that one gets a contrasting win- ter coloring. Malus species and varieties (Crab Apples) -- There are many varieties of crab apples which in our area will give a showy display in spring. Ma- kamik is one of the best Rosy- bloom types, Hopa is always heavily laden with deep rose- pink blooms, and Almey has the largest purplish blossoms of any crab apple.

Some people like:to have a crab apple that will give good flowers in spring, some beauty of foliage all summer and good fruit suit-| able for crab apple jelly in the| .\fall. I like Cowichan for this) purpose; I have tasted de- licious jelly from this variety. It has showy blossoris and purplish foliage and it grows to a shapely tree, Other people least) want a good spring effect but are not happy about crab apples in their garden, since they do encourage .children to climb the tree or eat the unripe fruit to their eventual discom- fort. For these people the double-flowered Betchtel's Crab Apple (Malus ionensis 'Plena') is the best one to get. Its large 24-inch flowers are soft pink and have a delightful scent somewhat like English violets. Then there are crab apples for bird lovers. We at the arbor- etum tried to establish a bird jfeeding station there but each year it is the same old story: all birds prefer to spend the winter living on the fruits of the Siberian crab apple (Malus baccata) and we cannot seem to get them to eat any other fare we have to offer. The Siberian crab apple makes a lovely shade"tree, its flowers are small but extremely abundant and its small yellow fruits last well into the winter.
