Excerpt from Ornamental and Timber Trees: Not Natives of the Province of QuebecCaptain Raynes, of Montreal, has trees of it about' 2 5 ft. In height, which are quite hardy, and with me, during the last three years, it has not shown the slightest sign of tenderness. It is a tree found in high latitudes in Europe. It grows wild about St. Petersburg, where, under garden culture, it has attained a height of, at any rate, 67 ft.Var. Laciniata. Cut-[caved alder.-this is really a strikingly pretty tree, a native of northern France, where it is said to be quite common, especially in Normandy. It seems of slightly slower growth than the above, and I had supposed it would not become so large a tree The largest I had seen was but 25 feet, but I see that it is stated in Europe to have measured 63 ft. It is a tree of far more grace and beauty than one would expect in an alder, and has shown no lack of hardiness with me during the last three winters.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
